2014 DAYL Leadership Class

2014 DAYL Leadership Class

DAYL is thrilled to announce the 43 members of the 2014 DAYL Leadership Class. The class met for an overnight retreat at the end of August at Possum Kingdom Lake for two days of team building exercises, leadership training, and some fun in the sun. There was even an Ice Bucket Challenge that was fulfilled, and paid forward, although our friends at the Houston Young Lawyers Association and the Austin Young Lawyers Association have yet to make good on the class’s challenge to them. Not that we’re calling anyone out; we’re just saying…

Serving as facilitators this year are Aaron Tobin (Anderson Tobin), Dena DeNooyer Stroh (Murchison Oil and Gas), The Honorable Rob Cañas (Criminal District Court Number 10), Laura Benitez Geisler (Geisler Law Firm), Mark “Injury-Free” Melton (Hunton & Williams), and Terry James (West & Associates LLP). Rob Crain (Crain Lewis), Robert Witte (Strasburger & Price), and Karen McCloud (Law Office of Karen McCloud) serve as class facilitator emeriti. DAYL President Mey Ly (Littler Mendelson) and DAYL President-elect Jonathan Childers (Gruber Hurst Johansen Hail Shank) also attended the retreat, as did PJ Dunn, a professional life coach and DAYL’s resident DJ.
The class and facilitators had a great time and learned a lot about themselves and each other. Congratulations to those who were selected to be a part of this Legacy of Leadership!
