About The Topic |
All enterprises must transform their culture from time to time to sustain their competitive advantage. Whether the motivation is externally or internally initiated, the consequence for not changing is predictably negative. Emerging technologies, economic trends, new competitors, changing consumer interests, legislation, personnel losses, financial constraints and countless other stimulants demand a response. Acting quickly and decisively often makes the difference between sustained success and demise.
John C. Sheptor, CEO, Imperial Sugar Company (a $1 Billion food industry company), our August guest speaker, is an accomplished expert in leading businesses through critical transformations. His achievements span eleven business sectors throughout the global arena. Mr. Sheptor will share his insights regarding his road map for creating positive "enterprise culture" change.
