    • LCRA Redbud Center, 3601 Lake Austin Blvd., Austin, TX 78703

    THEME: “Half Full: Turning RIM Challenges Into Strategic Wins”

    You’re invited to an inspiring and informative professional development seminar designed to empower Records and Information Managers (RIM) with practical insights, strategic tools, and forward-looking perspectives.

    People often debate whether the glass is half empty (pessimistic) or half full (optimistic). The saying “the glass is refillable” moves beyond both views. It means:

    You are not limited to the situation as it appears. You have the power to change it.

    What You’ll Learn:

    • How RIM professionals can strengthen their organizational impact
    • Tools to align your RIM program with information security
    • Practical approaches to RIM challenges
    • What new opportunities can be your strategic win
