A Great Way To Get Educated

I have discussed open book management and employee ownership as a means to improve bottom line performance and enhance company cultures.  At this time of the year, there are several national conferences that provide a huge learning opportunity for those of you considering open book management or employee ownership.

These conferences are some of the best deals you can find on educating yourself before you spend additional dollars on professional fees or consulting.  All three conferences utilize experts in the field, but one of the best values is that you will hear the real life stories of companies from the people themselves. 

These conferences also allow ample opportunity for you to network with your peers and pick their brains on what they did well and mistakes they have made.  This kind of value is not always easy to come by.  I have personally attended all three of these annual conferences and it is well worth the value.

The information for the conferences is as follows:

• NCEO (National Center for Employee Ownership) Annual Conference, April 22-24, Portland, OR
• National Gathering of Games (Great Game of Business), May 6-8, St. Louis, MO
• National ESOP Association Annual Conference, May 6-7, Washington D.C.   

Make the investment of time and resources today - you will not be disappointed.
