CLOSING KEYNOTE
Team Leadership & Leading Change
Align Systems, Lead Change and Drive Improved Results
Vision, mission, values & goals are essential for a team to stay focused and on track. But even more important are the systems, processes, structure and decision making that bring them to life. Management and leadership are very different from one another. Both are vital to the success of a team but each yields different results. In this thought provoking and inspirational presentation, you will learn when your team needs management from you and when your team needs leadership.
Leadership means improvement and improvement means change. Being able to successfully introduce improvement, manage resistance and gain commitment to change is a core competence needed to be a successful leader. If you are interested in creating a world-class team that is committed to improving quality and speed and embraces change this is a “don’t miss” presentation.
- Introduce improvement, manage resistance, and gain commitment to change.
- Correct misalignments and remove obstacles in the way of the team’s success.
- Keep the team motivated and focused on producing measurable results.
- Create a compelling team purpose, list of values and team goals.
- Lead during times of crisis and be a consistent role model that leads with integrity.

Achieving Effective Inventory Management – 6th Edition
Jon Schreibfeder
Achieving Effective Inventory Management, 6th Edition, based on our most recent research and up-to-date “best practices”, provides a complete guide for managing a large and often troublesome asset: inventory.
The economic challenges facing distributors today have resulted in EIM conducting a thorough review and update of the entire 5th edition. This update, coupled with discussions regarding the impact and adjustments that the current economic challenges have produced in all areas of inventory management, has produced our new 6th edition.
This book helps you achieve the goal of effective inventory management — to meet or exceed customers’ expectations of product availability with the amount of each item that will maximize your organization’s net profits or minimize its total inventory investment.
