CEDAR FALLS, Iowa – A pair of CBE Companies (CBE) executives will deliver timely, important presentations at the TRMA fall conference Sept. 14 in Miami. TRMA is an industry forum for risk management professionals from the telecommunications, pay TV, utility, waste management and other industries.

Curt Martin, CBE Senior Vice President of Operations, will speak to the importance of a talent inventory management process as a key to success in contact centers. His presentation will focus on how to develop and manage a leadership talent pipeline to support a growing company. Martin has 24 years of senior leadership experience in contact centers, managing both onshore and offshore locations.

Mike Frost, CBE Chief Compliance, Sales Officer and General Counsel, will be joined by Attorney Dale Golden of Golden Scaz Gagain, PPLC in presenting the impact of CBE’s recent Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) court victory and its impact on the credit and collections industry. In Strauss v. CBE, the court confirmed CBE’s Manual Clicker Application does not constitute an autodialed phone call, therefore mitigating the expensive regulatory risk the TCPA poses for calling consumers’ cell phones.

Frost has been a leader in the collection industry, frequently delivering presentations on compliance issues at industry events across the nation. In 2011 and 2012, Frost was named among the Top 25 Most Influential Collection Professionals by Collection Advisor. In 2014 he was named to the Who’s Who in Collections by the same magazine. Frost is a member of the ACA International Board of Directors and was awarded the 2014 Members’ Attorney Program designation. In 2015 Frost served on a panel for the Federal Trade Commission Debt Collection Dialogue.
