May 27 - Illinois Chapter Meeting: Aligning Service with Strategic Business Needs to Maximize Our Value
More and more, we're hearing how important it is to align our work with the strategic business objectives of our organizations in order to remain relevant and crucial. What does that mean, exactly? How do we find out what leadership will value most from us, and how can we help them to grow their business by helping them anticipate and respond to the needs of the 21st Century?
We will have a panel of leadership representatives from chapter members' organizations on hand to answer these questions and tell us what value in knowledge services means in their organization today.
This fun meeting is generously sponsored by The Wall Street Journal and Safari Books Online. Thanks to each of these vendors for their support and partnership!
