The third annual Global People Skills Conference will be held October 28 and 29, 2003 at the Georgia Centers for Advanced Telecommunications Technology (GCATT).
“Business, technology and people skills come together in a cohesive way with the experts we have assembled to help companies improve their profit margins and positioning in the international marketplace,” says Karla Brandau, CSP, conference creator and producer. “’New and Improved’ for this third year is such a cliché that I hesitate to use it”, Brandau continues, “but it is nevertheless true, thanks to our close association with Georgia State’s J. Mack Robinson College of Business.”
Dr. Sidney Harris, Dean of Georgia State University’s J. Mack Robinson College of Business will kick off the conference on October 28. According to Dean Harris, “Robinson is extremely pleased to again serve as a major partner in the Global People Skills Conference. Preparing students and executives for leadership roles in today’s dynamic global marketplace is one our major strategic objectives. We believe this program melds perfectly with Robinson’s goals and is one of the best such programs available anywhere.”
“This conference will be more thought provoking and action oriented than ever before, hence the title, ‘Think Tomorrow, Act Now.’” Brandau states. Brandau’s Atlanta based People Skills International, delivers targeted soft skill training to management and executive level teams working in the global marketplace.
Communication, cooperation and bottom line profits in the global company is, to different degrees, affected by culture, religion, race and politics. Organizations must become sensitive to and educated about these factors to sustain profit levels and growth in a worldwide community. The conference will provide this education for attendees.
