Montana Funeral Directors 2022 Convention and Trade Show
June 2-5, 2022 Helena, MT
As part of the Education section of the convention, this year, we feature a number of
dynamic speakers. Below we feature three of these dynamic speakers: Linda Cohen,
Leili McMurrough and Rose M. James.
Linda Cohen is the author of “The Economy of Kindness: How Kindness Transforms Your Bottom Line.” She will explain why kindness is so crucial in the workplace, that a culture of kindness can improve team performance and company morale. She will review and determine core kindness practices for acknowledgment and recognition, training opportunities and work-life balance. She contends that acts of kindness strengthen employee engagement and reduces burnout, and she will discuss kindness opportunities between funeral directors, staff, community and families.
Part inspiration and part motivation, your members will gather actionable ideas to bring back to their workplace and immediately implement what they’ve learned.
The second feature speaker is Leili McMurrough. She holds an impressive pedigree: she is the Program Director at Worsham College, is a licensed funeral director and embalmer, and she is also a licensed attorney. Ms. McMurrough received her B.A. from Lehigh University, her J.D. from Syracuse University College of Law, and her Associate degree from Simmons Institute of Funeral Service. She works at McMurrough Funeral Chapel in Libertyville, Illinois, and is a member of the American Board of Funeral Service Education Committee on Accreditation.
Her areas of discipline will make for interesting commentary.
Rose M. James graduated with honors from Michigan State University College of Law in 2017. Before moving to Montana, Rose worked with Michigan’s leading estate planning and elder law attorneys. Rose is licensed in both Montana and Michigan, where she focuses her practice in estate planning, probate, and estate and trust administration. She received her juris doctorate Cum Laude, Michigan State University College of Law 2017, B.S. Politcal Science, Summa Cum Laude, Lake Superior State University 2014.
