Beyond Tomorrow: Anticipate and Act

In 2013, the Association of MBAs International Conference for Deans and Directors will be held in historic Warsaw, Poland. The conference, titled Beyond Tomorrow: Anticipate and Act, is designed to allow business school heads three days out of the day-to-day to focus on the future beyond the issues of today and tomorrow.


Day one of the conference will invite you to anticipate the demands and opportunities of the future with visionary speakers and interactive breakout sessions designed to help you look ahead. On day two you will be inspired by the best of other sectors and your competitors and given the opportunity to reflect on these examples through facilitated discussions. Day three will focus on implementation and strategic planning.

Keynote speakers, breakout discussions, case studies and best practice examples from all over the world will illuminate four thematic strands of technology, competitive advantage, work and emerging markets.
 






Location

The conference will be delivered against the backdrop of Poland – Europe’s success story – having emerged out of the global financial crisis free from recession, with a booming economy and business education market. Dinners and receptions will take place in the strikingly beautiful and historic old town of Warsaw with its squares, cobbled streets and palaces.
