Steve Janke is President of Brelie Gear and chair of the AGMA Tradeshow Committee.
When I was first invited to join what would become the Strategic Networking Leadership Forum (SNL)—then in its earliest meetings as the Future Leaders Council—I wasn’t sure exactly what to expect. I was a relatively new face in the association, still finding my footing in a room full of other young owners and executives, eager to learn from each other. But I showed up, and that decision changed the trajectory of my involvement with this organization in ways I couldn’t have anticipated.
As the chairperson for the American Gear Manufacturers Association (AGMA) Tradeshow Committee, I can tell you that we have not stopped working to make Motion + Power Technology Expo (MPT Expo) the type of show that delivers quality leads and a platform for showcasing your latest innovations in mechanical, electric and fluid power.
