WHISTLER PACKAGE OUTLINE: Ongoing Learning
This year’s Whistler package is based on a new approach of ongoing learning that extends beyond the symposium and includes events throughout the year for you and members of your team.
The package breaks down into three parts - strategy, tactics and mentoring.
To begin, there are two Best Practices Workshops focused on tactics. The first one is on the One Page Strategic Plan Plan and the other one is on "Smart Selling".
The full day workshop on Strategic Planning takes place before Whistler. CEOs can attend and/or send team members to it.
The Smart Selling workshop is delivered on the first afternoon of the Whistler Symposium and for the first time in ACETECH history, CEOs are welcome to bring a member of their sales team to this session as part of their package.
The Symposium this year is entirely focused on strategy. The goal is to allow CEOs to benchmark their strategic direction against leading edge trends from thought leaders and peform a gap analysis. Speakers include:
· David Yoffie
· Jack Daly, sales guru
· Michael Winston, Named one of the Top Business Thought-Leadership 2007 & 2008
· Ian Sobieski – founder and Managing Director of the Band of Angels in San Francisco
For years now, we’ve had a demand from CEOs wanting to join a CEO Roundtable but we have not had enough vacant spots.
Now, the Whistler registration will include a series of Whistler peer roundtables following the Symposium that will take place from May – December. This is the mentoring piece of the package.
These sessions will only be open to Whistler attendees. Participants will decide on the topics at Whistler and ACETECH will provide a topic expert to moderate the session.
