About this event

Have you have ever thought about joining a book club? Then you thought, I don’t have time to read the books. Well now you can get all of the benefits of a book club without reading the book.

THE CMC BOOK CLUB EXPRESS

CMC Book Club Express is a fun and easy way to explore new books on leadership and management, get to know other CMC members, laugh and meet one of your professional development requirements.

HOW IT WORKS

A monthly get together at 12pm Pacific / 3pm Eastern, a book summary is selected from the YouExec.com collection of book summaries. YouExec.com is an executive resource portal used by over 900,000 executives worldwide.

Participation in the CMC Book Club Express and access to the YouExec.com book summaries is FREE with your CMC Membership. You simply need to read (or listen to) the selected book summary, register to attend (here), and log in to the Zoom meeting.

Don’t think you even have time to read a book summary? No worries, there is a 20-minute audio summary to download.
