As we slowly emerge from the shadow of the pandemic, what will our new reality look like? That's one of the many themes we'll be discussing at the upcoming BenefitsPRO Broker Expo in San Diego, August 16-18th.
Our industry is very familiar with change and disruption, and if there's one thing we've learned over the years, it's that advisors and others in the benefits community are experts at creating opportunity and growth during times of upheaval.
