"During the height of the pandemic, we were stuck all day behind computers and phones, at work and at home. Now that we have emerged from isolation, why would we want to experience life like that again?" asked Rich Lee, CSMFO President, Finance Director, City of San Mateo. "There will be plenty of moments at the conference that will forge wonderful memories for each of us. So, resist the temptation to pick up your phone to record or livestream and remember how fortunate we all are to be in the same room with one another."
