VBEC FOCUSES ON CULTURE CHANGE IN ORGANIZATIONS FOR 2012
The VBEC Board of Advisors has been hard at work planning the VBEC 2012 calendar and continues to look for value added benefits for our members. Don't miss the upcoming event at Capital One presented by Steven Hall, Developing Lean Leaders. Steven delivered this same presentation to the AME Conference in Dallas to a packed audience!
As you look at the VBEC calendar you will see a variety of event types and locations to choose from. In the works for April is an evening social so you can meet other VBEC members and potential members.
Our theme for the year is Changing Culture for Process Excellence. You will see woven throughout the year the them of culture change and learn tips on how to affect positive change in your organization. Thanks to Dominion's Chesapeake Energy Center for their part in kicking off the theme with their Site Visit and tour last month. It was informative and interesting to see the positive change the Dominion team has gone through.
The Board is working on building committees to help move different aspects of our organization forward. Be on the lookout for more information and consider signing up for a committee.
Stay tuned for lots of good things as we go through the year. In the meantime, don't forget to register for the February 23rd event---seating is limited and we'll hope to see you soon. |
