Welcome to the 9th IMIG Convention.
6th – 7th October, 2010
Leonberg, Germany
“Always remember that nothing remains as it is and realize that nature changes its form over and over again.”
Marcus Aurelius (121-180), Roman Emperor.
As businesses move forward following the 2009 difficulties, successful enterprises and managers have distinguished themselves by a high adaptability to the constantly changing environment. Most successful are proven to be those enterprises which carry out and evaluate changes by themselves.
These changes – focused on continuity and sustainability – merit greater scrutiny due to the business implications on the competitive landscape and what this means in terms of opportunities for companies.
Sustainability is garnering ever-greater public attention and debate and it goes beyond environmental and ecological issues as it also covers issues on economic growth, productivity and supply chain and value innovation.
Will sustainability change the competitive landscape and reshape the opportunities and threats that companies face? Will sustainability have a material impact on our customer´s companies? What should managers do about it?
In the 9th installment of the IMIG Convention, “Ability to Shift: How can we handle the continuous changes” managers will hear from top corporate executives how the downturn has accelerated a shift towards a greater company focus on sustainability related actions that have an immediate impact on the corporate bottom line.
Participants to the 9th IMIG Convention will benefit from a two day convention program that among other things will include:
- The views of Top-executives via discussions and presentations in the plenum.
- Practical-oriented workshops that will redefine and answer the relevant questions linked to performance and resource efficiency.
- Plant visits to renowned global companies bringing theory into practice..
Successful companies are those always ahead, those that recognize change not as a menace, but as a favorable opportunity.
We look forward to welcoming you to the 9th IMIG Convention on the 6th and 7th of October 2010 in the event hall of the city of Leonberg.
