The biggest sin a manager
can commit is doing nothing

SEMINAR:
Enterprise management in unstable economy:
What is important for you as a manager to know?
Hotel Villon le Meridien, 29 September, 9 a.m. – 5 p.m.

By Ulf Hallan, President of European Leadership Institute

If you are going to participate in one seminar this autumn, let it be this one. Not for yourself, but for the future of your company!

The dark clouds are arising again over the World Economy. Uncertainty and fear of the future do not only scare the World Leaders. They are trying to act now to save us from a new recession.

This situation does not only call for action from politicians. You, as a manager have a responsibility to make the right decisions now for your company.

But what are the right decisions? Should we cut costs or invest? Should we downsize or expand? What are the most necessary actions to be taken by you as a manager in the current situation?

Some say that the biggest sin a manager can commit is doing nothing. Your actions today have their consequences a year from now. And maybe in two and three years.

This is not going to be a listening seminar. You must be prepared to take part in the group and plenary discussions. Sharing your thoughts and actions. As we do have some non-Lithuanian speakers (their introductions will be translated), we will also have one or two English speaking working groups. Please check if you wish to take part in one of these and brush up your English. All other groups will work in Lithuanian language.

This seminar is intended for managers who have the responsibility of their company’s future. Weather you run a production company, an IT or Telecom company, a hotel or a service provider, this seminar will help you address the two most important questions:

·         What is happening out there?

·         What should I do in this situation? 

European Leadership Institute invites you to the interactive seminar
