Margit Weisgal to Head TSEA - A Good Move

Margit Weisgal was named the new Executive Director of TSEA last week.

This is a great move both for her and the organization. Margit is a true industry veteran. Margit worked with Ed Chapman at Sextant. Ed was a bit of an icon, having run all of the programs for AT&T when it was still among the world's largest companies. Ed wrote one of the definitive books on Trade Show Marketing and was a great influence on me. He asked me to contribute several pieces for the book. Ed died last year.

Margit is a "get-it done" kind of person. She knows her stuff, is firm and completely likable at the same time. I think she will be a great influence on TSEA. I plan to help Margit in anyway possible.
