Kind Regards Sandra Lukey SMARTNET WORKSHOPS SERIES 2003: Taking on the Challenge http://www.smartnet.co.nz/events/2003/round1.htm Dunedin: Tuesday, 1 April, The Chancellor Dunedin Auckland: Wednesday, 2 April, Totem on the Viaduct Wellington: Thursday, 3 April, The Duxton Hotel Christchurch: Friday, 4 April, Centra Hotel LUNCH SESSION: 12noon - 2.00pm The value of a new challenge is that it focuses energy. Sustained economic growth can only be achieved if a critical mass of individual New Zealand enterprises take on the challenge of taking a quantum step up. i) The Export Challenge Neil Scott, Leader and Chief Engineer, Archimedes Project, Stanford University (USA) Award winning innovator and expatriate Neil Scott argues that despite military uncertainties and the appreciation of the NZ dollar there are great export opportunities in the US and elsewhere for innovative companies. ii) The Information Challenge Brenda Tripp, Managing Director, TACTICS Ltd (Australasia) Many organisations have recognised the strategic importance of managing information as a corporate asset. Brenda will highlight some of the specific tactics used by successful organisations to shift from strategy to performance. (NB: Brenda will be speaking at Auckland, Wellington and Christchurch events only). iii) The Learning Challenge John Martin Jr., Director Asia Pacific, Pathlore Limited (USA) The promise of eLearning has been over-hyped in some quarters but it has re-ignited discussion about investment in education and training as a strategic business issue. John Martin will focus on learning management solutions that deliver real ROI.
