Managing HiTech Firms During Massive Uncertainty December 4, 2008

Recent economic earthquakes and other changes are beyond startling. New dimensions have been added to the complexities of managing in order to secure, maintain, and grow your business.
You need to know how to manage, lead, and deal with your staff, products, customers, suppliers, and competitors. Some think cost-cutting is the only way. It isn't.

We prepared this seminar to help you understand:
--Duration and impact of previous recessions
--Issues that have been important to others
--Tactics to expect from your customers and your competitors
--Chaotic times are opportunities
--How to change how you do business!
--Strategic themes for management and in verbal communication
--Planing for the unthinkable disaster, the unbelievable opportunity, and exploiting the recovery

The presenters have a broad array of experience, from management in Silicon Valley, to venture capital, to green field factories in Africa.
