Brian Beneduce, of East Greenwich, is a Rhode Island-based owner and author of “Scared to Death...Do It Anyway!” He will address the April 26th meeting of the Executives Association of Rhode Island. The meeting will be held from noon to 1:30 at The Radisson Hotel, Post Road, Warwick, and includes lunch.

Beneduce overcame severe anxiety and panic while growing his company to one of the premier sales and packaging companies in the United States and Canada. Ocean State Packaging holds over 22 patents, and is in its 25th year of business. Beneduce is also the founder and president of Motivate for Success, where for over 15 years he has coached and trained companies and individuals one-on-one or in small groups called as “Conversations With Brian.” The worldwide launch of his book will take place this May in Rhode Island.

The meeting includes lunch and is open to those interested in membership in the RI Executives Association. New members are being recruited in categories not already represented. The organization is Rhode Island’s oldest business lead and referral organization and a local chapter of the International Executives Association.
