It is hard to believe that just a little over a year ago, we were enjoying the excellent programming and networking at ULI Arizona’s Trends Day 2020 along with over 1,100 of our friends and colleagues. Merely two weeks later, the WHO declared that COVID-19 warranted pandemic status and the world shut down. Who would have ventured to guess the virus would still be dictating our everyday activities and work lives. On that February day in 2020, none of us had any idea it would be over a year before we are all able to gather again, and I must say I MISS YOU ALL! But rather than dwell on the unfortunate events and consequences of 2020, I’d like to focus on some of the lessons we have learned from our year of isolation and observation.
Here’s hoping you have been or will soon be vaccinated so we can all get back to meeting in person, traveling, and enjoying theater, concerts, sporting events, etc. ULI is optimistically planning for an in-person Fall Meeting in Chicago. Fingers crossed!
