Maylan Newton, Richard Flint to Lead Sessions at ASA Annual Meeting

March 7, 2018—The Automotive Service Association (ASA) has announced its lineup of instructors for the Thursday, May 3, training sessions at the 2018 Annual Business Meeting.

Scheduled for May 2-4, at the luxurious Walt Disney World Swan & Dolphin Resort Hotel in Orlando, the Business Meeting will feature two, half-day sessions on Thursday, taking place simultaneously from 2-5 p.m. The classes are approved by the Automotive Management Institute (AMi), and students can earn six credits per class. The Thursday sessions include:

• “New for 2018: 6 Tips for Making Better Decisions,” by Maylan Newton, CEO of ESI, which is designed to teach shop owners and their staff the techniques of developing better decision-making skills.
• “Embracing Change: Take the Fear Out of Change and Establish a Mindset of Improvement,” by Richard Flint, chairman and CEO of Flint Inc., which will explore the four-phase timetable a shop goes through toward self-destruction—if it is not willing to implement change. The course also will offer specific steps shop owners must take to open their mind to improvement.
