The Who’s Who of ALTA SPRINGBOARD
Speakers can make or break an event! At ALTA, we only invite the crème de la crème to inform, entertain and inspire you. (Seriously, we have a lot of meetings to narrow down our list of presenters. A LOT.) This year, we have been combing the title industry to bring you a slate of next-level speakers for ALTA SPRINGBOARD Ideas Festivals. Check them out:
Mary O’Donnell and Maureen Pfaff WTP, NTP will get you ready for a new decade in “Talent and Diversity – Does Your Company Reflect Your Community?”
- Mary O'Donnell is president and CEO of Westcor Land Title Insurance Co. and somehow still has time to be ALTA president. Under her leadership, Westcor has grown from a three-state title insurance underwriter with a handful of employees and gross revenues of approximately $40 million, to a national underwriter grossing in excess of $500 million and employing a staff of seasoned professionals.
