Last week’s NIADA Leadership Management Accelerator Bootcamp in Albany was a tremendous success!

We brought together dedicated dealers for two days of hands-on learning, collaboration, and forward-thinking strategy. From leadership development to operational excellence, the energy in the room was unmatched and a true reflection of the strength and commitment of our dealer community.

A special thank you to our trainer John Dismukes, sponsors Podium, and IPacket who made this program so impactful. Your engagement, insights, and willingness to invest in growth are what continue to move this industry forward.

NJIADA is proud to support opportunities like this that empower dealers with the tools, knowledge, and connections they need to succeed.

Looking forward to the next one!
