If (like me) you’ve been a long time fan of the Balanced Scorecard approach to business management, you may be interested to know that co-author Dr David Caplan is leading a strategy summit next month right on our doorstep…CEO’s, CFO’s, Directors of Strategy Management, Executive Leadership Teams, business unit heads and Strategy Managers and Planners are invited to attend the Palladium Asia Pacific Summit to hear from Dr David Norton as he draws on experience working with countless organisations around the world to show Summit participants how your management system can become a competitive weapon enabling your organisation to execute faster and with more certainty than your competition.

Delivered exclusively by Dr David Norton, Founder Palladium Group, co-creator of the Balanced Scorecard and co-author with Dr Robert S. Kaplan, of eight Harvard Business Review (HBR) articles and five books, this is a summit that is sure to be attended by the Who’s Who of business across Asia Pacific.

As the Global Economic Crisis (GEC) passes through the one-year mark, most organisations have made the necessary decisions to ensure survival in the short term by cutting costs and preserving cash.    In spite of mixed global data, early indications show that South East Asian economies are recovering much more quickly than their North American and European counterparts. In spite of these “green shoots” the global downturn remains a clear and present threat to global and regional growth at least into 2010.

Business leaders looking to take the lead in the regional recovery will use this event to:

• Gain an in-depth understanding from Dr Norton of the new Strategy Management System that effectively links strategy to operations to create an Execution Premium,
• Network with high-level decision makers from across Asia Pacific in a unique and inspiring environment,
• Benefit from case studies by leading organisations and learn from their experience on best practices and pitfalls in strategy execution,
• Learn how to harness innovation, execute your strategy and transform your organisation out of the downturn,
• Shape your leadership agenda for delivering better strategy execution and ongoing sustainability in the global marketplace, and
• Learn how to apply world class concepts in your organization as a high potential source of competitive advantage.
