AN ANNOUNCEMENT OF UNUSUAL IMPORTANCE...

WHAT MAKES IQPC's Lean Six Sigma Summit in January DIFFERENT FROM COMPETING EVENTS?
Plenty!
A good contact asked me this last week and as I gave my answer I thought, 'Why not share my answers with the rest of the community too?'
So allow me to tell you about our incredible content and opportunities that continue to keep IQPC's Summit more than a step ahead of any event I've yet to come across...
The main reason, and undoubtedly the most important, is that we offer better value for money (A factor of primary importance considering the current recession and tighter pockets).
Now in our 11th year and base don your direct feedback we are now providing a brand new set of new value-added services that perfectly compliment our extraordinary conference portfolio - I'm not talking about a free drinks reception, I'm talking about real, tangible, business improvement services:
Number 1: Truly interactive content
Not just the usual panel session, half hearted discussions or lectures but real in-depth group collaborations. How? Well this year you’ll be able to share your own opinion in real time with the aid of real time interactive technology. No more waiting for microphones or being nervous to voice your option – it’s anonymous, quick to post a question and easy to work in groups. Trust me this new development will bring a whole new level to you learning experience and make sure you walk home with all you business critical questions answered at the touch of a button. On top of this you’ll also find that all speaker are briefed to ensure maximum interactivity and information sharing so you won’t have to worry about death by power point either.
Number 2: Free access to the latest Lean Six Sigma secrets
I’m sure many of you will have already visited the online networking and information portal www.sixsigmaiq.com but just in case you haven’t...
IQPC has now hosts the first authentic social media and networking website for process excellence practitioners. It really is an amazing website – take a look and see for yourself.
Through our state-of-the-art connective technologies you'll be able to communicate with thousands of other process excellence practitioners on a daily basis.
More precisely, you'll be able to learn from and productively use multiple sources of Lean Six Sigma & process excellence information--conversations, opinions, and expertise expressed in audio, video, and print.
Put simply, it’s fresher, more advanced and has superior usability to any other portal. To quote somebody who recently became an online portal member: “This is so neat! It’s like Linked In and Facebook combined, but just for us Lean Six Sigma folk!”
Number 3: Year round networking made easy
At every event you ask us how you can keep in touch with people after the event. And we finally have the solution. No - we're not going to give you the attendee list and send you off to make your own contacts; every single attendee will be invited to join the online portal Summit group. This can be found on www.sixsigmaiq.com under the groups section on the portal.
This enables you to communicate exclusively with attendees and presenters at the Summit and we'll be doing this for nearly all of our events going forward.
So, not only can you stay in touch, but you'll have a well-organized approach for asking questions to specific solution providers & industry leaders after the conference has ended.
Let's face it; nobody has time for continuous trial-and-error learning. You'll be able to swap ideas and remedies with your peers from the conference 24/7 all-year round.
In summary, when you add all of this together, there's a good chance that you'll save the cost of the Summit many times over by having the opportunity to tap into the collective wisdom of alumni of the Summit; continuously exchange ideas, information and techniques with the entire Process Excellence community.
So - these are just three reasons why IQPC's Lean Six Sigma Summit in Orlando, Jan 2010 is unequivocally better than any other event out there and also a glimpse into the incredible new resource that is www.sixsigmaiq.com.
Our experience in establishing and growing the Lean Six Sigma conference world from un-chartered territory to the breadth and size of events now available, means that we are always far ahead of the competition. We wrote the conference rule book for this community so we know how to stay ahead of the game!
Feel free to contact me and share your thoughts on how we can improve further still, better still come and meet me in Orlando in January.
Kind Regards,
Vanessa Lovatt
