These strategy sessions are your chance to swap experiences, ideas and best practices to advance your funeral home to the next level. OGR Study Group meet in various cities across the country and the world. Study Groups meet throughout the year to explore ways to better serve families, fulfill increasingly diverse requests for services, achieve profit goals, and attract new families.
"Our firm has been a member of OGR for over 30 years. I have found that the information I have learned over those years has been invaluable to helping my business, including making it grow. One of the best things I have appreciated besides the friendships of like-minded business owners is the knowledge that we all have. On that subject, I am totally convinced that the Study Groups are one of the best things OGR has to offer and I highly recommend any owner or manager to join one of the study groups."

Using a combination of discussion methods, internal and external expertise, and industry data, Study Group participants work together to develop practical takeaways that you can implement at your firm. Participants can suggest topics and bring materials with you that you that wish to share (financial disclosures not required). Study Group participants act as your personal consultants by way of their opinions, experiences and insights. If you’re looking to learn successful strategies from colleagues that will help advance your firm to the next level, then joining a Study Group is right for you!
Study Groups are open exclusively to OGR members. Registration is free (you pay your travel and meal expenses). You can attend one or more study groups throughout the year. Click the link below for more information about upcoming Study Groups.
