Get ready for another unforgettable experience at AMWA’s 2026 Executive Management Conference (EMC), taking place October 25–28 in Seattle, Washington. As the premier event for executive-level learning and networking in the drinking water sector, the EMC continues to raise the bar so be sure to secure your spot at this year’s can’t-miss gathering of industry leaders.

On Monday, October 26, attendees will hear from Mike Abrashoff, a former U.S. Navy commander, leadership expert, and bestselling author of It’s Your Ship. Known for his transformational leadership approach, Abrashoff took command of the USS Benfold and turned one of the Navy’s lowest-performing crews into one of its best by focusing on trust, accountability, and empowering every member of his team.

EMC participants will enjoy the following advantages:

  • Learn from and engage with fellow executives from the nation’s largest drinking water systems as you tackle the most pressing challenges and issues facing the sector;
  • Engage in executive-level peer networking opportunities during breaks, lunches, and receptions;
  • Celebrate outstanding utility management at AMWA’s prestigious annual awards ceremony; and
  • Participate in an optional site visit to Seattle Public Utilities’ Cedar River Watershed Education Center and Cedar Falls Masonry Dam.
