Kincaid’s 20+ years in trade show management, operations, coordination, and strategic development will be an integral addition to the experienced SEM&I team leading this new business venture for MCI. He is adept at managing multiple events concurrently while consistently improving processes and exceeding expectations. With a proven history of success in building high-performance teams, Kincaid has a reputation for talent acquisition, building team cultures to which others gravitate, and identifying new talent through coaching and developing others. He is also known for diplomacy and a strong ability to liaise with association committees.
