Sam Geist will be the speaker with the title, ‘Differentiate or die’. A statement: “Transitional times and new players in the market negate the “business as usual” approach. They offer the perfect opportunity to adopt a bold plan, to take a firm stand to differentiate yourself and your organization from the competition. What makes your organization different from, and better, than your competition? Learn about viable options to create effective differentiation, to grow your organization, to enhance your profitability and to “loyalize” customers who are now clearly in the driver’s seat.”
Jason Young will talk on ‘The New Diversity – Engaging the Generational Workforce. The workplace is filled with significant generational differences and associated challenges between Traditionalists, Boomers, Generation X-ers, and the newest group – the Millennials.. Each generation learns, values, thinks, develops differently and must be led differently. Yet each generation has common ground which managers can leverage and build on. In this presentation, Jason Young encourages leaders not to judge but to coach and manage each generational group with intentionality. Jason explains how to manage the various generations in a way that helps create and sustain a high performance workplace.
Greg Schwem will be the keynote speaker at the theme, ‘Work, Laugh, Repeat’. Greg will entertain the attendees with a humorous look at today’s corporate environment along with down-to-earth and practical advice about real work issues.
