On Friday, October 16, 2020 at 1:30 PM ET, Kim will be a panelist for the session “Preserving the Record in Today’s Challenging Industry, Part 2″
STARCON20 Session: Back by popular demand, join members of the solutions-based group SOS Plan B as they discuss what SOS and the industry is doing to work toward preserving the record in today’s challenging times. Stenographic reporters remain a vital part of the profession, but with the shortage, how do you meet the clients’ need for a verbatim record? Is voice-writing an option? Is video an option? Is digital recording an option? Will the uptick in remote depositions have an impact on the shortage? Join the panel of speakers and moderator Marybeth Everhart for this honest and frank discussion.

STARCON20 Session: Running a business during a pandemic is no easy feat. There is no playbook. There is no past experience. But we have also been given the gift of time, reflection, and a chance to think about how we can shift our lives to make them more rounded, more balanced, and more meaningful. Our panel will share their survival strategies in business, and share their ways of taking the silver lining out of our COVID clouds.
