The Benelux Chamber of Commerce in China, the German Chamber of Commerce in China, the European Union Chamber of Commerce in China, SwissCham, LMI and MTI are delighted to invite you to a business event on March 15 2011:
Global Leadership Conference
Local talents for your Global Success – best practice in developing world class leaders in China
Leadership Challenges in China
As China powers through the international economic and financial turbulence, moves up the international value chain and shifts its focus to serve the rapidly growing domestic market, multinational companies have no time to lose in sharpening their competitive edge. In response, German companies in China are finding that they need to develop leaders not only for their expanding businesses in China but also for their global operations. The German Chamber of Commerce with LMI and MTI have designed this half-day Conference for senior management, heads of business units and HR to learn global best practice in developing global leaders. You will participate in an interactive exploration of challenges, join a panel discussion of solutions, attend two workshops led by two of China’s major leadership development organisations, and hear from the CEO of one of Germany’s global businesses. You will take away useful practical tools for developing the global leaders in your organisation.
It’s time for development
Are you interested in leading your team in an even more effective way and learning from a high-ranking panel discussion, productive workshops and an interesting speech about leadership skills by one of China’s biggest company’s CEOs? Then we would like to invite you to spend an inspiring afternoon with us, where you can focus on the challenges of leadership in China today.
What’s waiting for you?
