As we gear up for our AME 2024 International Conference next week, I want to remind everyone that there is still time to register and join us in Atlanta. We will host attendees from all over the United States, Canada, Mexico, Australia and 19 other countries. Zoom calls are nice, but nothing beats those genuine, old-fashioned face-to-face connections!
This year, the AME conference will focus on developing an evolving workforce, CI tools and culture, nurturing thriving learning organizations, coaching the practice of problem-solving together and striking a balance while integrating people and AI. This is your one-stop event for all things continuous improvement and Lean.
While we will hear from industry leaders and take away best practices as we CONNECT. EVOLVE. TRANSFORM., the best part of the conference is not listed on our website. Of course, we all know how special an AME conference is — the exchange of ideas, keynote presentations, workshops and benchmarking tours. However, it’s not just about these sessions. It’s about spontaneous conversations and the connections that lead to lifelong friendships and opportunities to share, learn and grow. Every conversation has the potential to leave a lasting impression and open doors we never expected. I know they did for me. These connections become part of our personal and professional journeys, creating memories we’ll look back on for years to come. We will build bridges and forge those long-lasting relationships that the founders of AME envisioned decades ago.
And don’t forget that AME is celebrating our 40th birthday — quite an achievement. We will have lots of fun activities around this milestone birthday.
As a reminder:
- Book your room and experience urban energy and a stylish vibe at the newly renovated Atlanta Marriott Marquis, located in downtown Atlanta near the Georgia Aquarium and World of Coca-Cola.

If you haven’t yet registered for the AME 2024 International Conference, now is the time. Don’t let the fear of missing out (FOMO) become your reality. This is your chance to be part of something truly special, and I don’t want anyone to look back and wish they had been there. The excitement is contagious, and I can’t wait to see you all there.
As always, please stay safe and keep looking out for one another.
