"Human Capital as a Strategic Resource/Competitive Edge - Learning From the Best"
Message from our President & CEO

I think I will let the below feedback speak for our thoughts on how this Conference went.

  • "Awesome. What a line-up. Wasn't just a home run. This time is was a 'grand Slam.' Great Job." (John Barber, Cummins & Barnard, Inc.)

  • "Another outstanding CEN conference. Two very relevant 'take-aways.' One from one of the featured speakers, the other from a fellow CEN member. I'm implementing both when I return to the office Monday. Now those are 'take-aways.'" (G.T. Goros, United Plastic)

  • "Again, positive and extremely relevant to today's business environment. Numerous suggestions were offered-drop traditional practices, think, and become innovative." (Sam Groninger, Mills Products, Inc.)

  • "Absolutely terrific. Fast paced speakers well versed in their topic. Lots of new ideas to reflect on." (Bob Gudmundson, Cowhey Gudmundson Leder, Ltd.)

In addition to the speaker's in-depth presentations, I heard from a number of participants that they received excellent "take-homes" from the other conferees in the facilitated roundtable sessions. I never cease to be amazed by the depth of our Network!

Special thanks to Jean Reynolds and Craig Marton for their excellent presentations on "Building Culture & Communication" and "Organizational Upgrade" respectively. Again, an example of our members making the difference! (Jean and Craig's presentations, as well as those of our other speakers from this Conference, may be found here.

Many of you have asked about registration for our Annual Hilton Head Leadership Conference. It will be held at the Westin on Hilton Head Island on November 4th and 5th. Since I expect this year's Conference to sell out even earlier than usual (due to our Innovation Theme) please begin to consider the other Senior Executives from your company as well as customers or key suppliers whom you would like to invite to this Conference. I will send out registration details within the next 30 days, together with early registrations forms, to ensure that you are included at this important Conference.

Best regards,
