direction of their organizations. These specially scheduled activities
running throughout the conference will add immeasurably to your
conference experience.
Explore all the conference has to offer and then huddle with
other executives to share the new ideas you've heard, help others
examine alternative strategies and ideas, and begin a dialogue that
will grow throughout the year.
