Dialogue Sessions

Based on a small ‘peer group’ format, these sessions are led by speakers, members of the DMI Advisory Council and other experts in the field. The dialogues provide the ideal opportunity to discuss issues and concerns and with colleagues. The moderators set the group focus, but dialogues are your opportunity to talk to industry colleagues about how they overcome issues and problems similar to your own.
