Rise and shine, lovely business people! Seems like we were quite popular in Canada with our last post, so we decided to dedicate today's one to a very special and engaging event in Vancouver. It is our second time touring the North America continent and no doubt, it is going to be amazing!
Vancouver is a top international destination for business meetings and conventions with direct flights from cities in almost every continent. It ranks in top 10 for most inhabitable cities in the world for 5th consecutive year. Vancouver is extremely dynamic and diverse, situated in remarkable natural settings and offering a wide range of unique modern venues, ready to serve any event needs and requirements. The specific event that caught our attention is called Building the Future: Thinking, Planning, Doing.
Event Overview
Building the Future: Thinking, Planning, Doing event is an
interactive day workshop, taking place on 6th June, which is focused on the practical techniques for
thinking and planning strategically to build a positive future. The organisers have been consulting their clients to an expert level for more than 10 years in the areas of strategic planning, knowledge management, problem-solving and event organising. Their promise to you as an attendee of the workshop is that during the event you will learn practical ways to consider
and understand strategic contexts, and scan for impacts and influences of
managing the business. Also, techniques will be considered in intensive
discussions by applying them in the case studies.
Venue
The event will be held in The Vancouver Club Building. This
venue is specifically designed for accommodating huge events and has all necessary facilities for holding conferences, workshops, congresses and many others. In addition there are plenty of beautiful and cosy spaces to relax and refresh after. Some examples include exclusive accommodation, leisure and fitness rooms and dining area.
