(Immediately following the ISBM Members Meeting)
12:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.

Nittany Lion Inn
Penn State Campus
State College, Pennsylvania

Registration Fee: Free

Immediately following our ISBM Members Meeting—August 22-23, 2006 at the Nittany Lion Inn in State College.

The full agenda for the Consortium Meeting is shown below, but key highlights include:

  • A Member case history by Paul Nolan from National Starch and Chemical. Paul, working with Mike Modak and other key executives, has been working on their "Marketing Journey" around the world—and will bring us interesting insights on how things are going: lessons learned, progress made, traps to avoid...
  • Highlights of new products that we're considering or becoming available, including a "Basics" course from our Associate Director Rick Kean, new sales courses, and other offerings from ISBM Faculty Leader, Dr. Rockney Walters of the Kelley School at Indiana.
  • And as usual—plenty of time for roundtable discussion, networking, benchmarking.

This is an important meeting of our "community of learning and practice." ISBM meetings are a great place to build your personal and professional network. We hope that you are able to attend both meetings.
