There is a lot of excitement about our upcoming “Find Your Competitive Edge” series featuring Rita McGrath, the sixth most influential business thinker in the world, via webcasts and live on Jan. 30 at the BWI Hilton Hotel in Maryland. Rita will talk about strategy in uncertain times and cover the latest from her new book, The End of Competitive Advantage. The live session will include a working session on your 2014 competitive edge playbook and a collaboration session to gain insights from the crowd. Details and registration information can be found here.
We have lots of upcoming programs for our CFOs and BIG members. Check the MACPA website for details.
