Greetings!   Leader
It's back by popular demand!
 
No, not Disco dancing.  GrowthWave's unique and powerful IT Leadership Development Forum.
 
This program was a big hit in 2007 and we are continuing it in 2008.
 
Our program turns talented technologists into trusted business leaders within IT.  Everyone benefits - IT, the business and the individual.
 
This program is designed for CIOs, IT VPs and IT Directors.  Seating is limited to 15 members to allow for a high-degree of dialog and interaction.  Attendees are already signing up, so be sure to contact GrowthWave to reserve a seat today.
 
Reserve by calling GrowthWave at 425-844-1842 or by sending an email to Leadership@GrowthWave.com.
 
The group will meet for 1/2 day each month, and this will be an ongoing program, renewable every 12 months.  John Hughes, founder of GrowthWave, will lead the sessions.
 
What's so special about GrowthWave's IT Leadership Development Program?
  1. It's not training.  Effective leadership development can't happen in a training class.  It takes time, focus and a process.
  2. GrowthWave's program has been designed specifically for IT professionals.  Yep, they're that special.
  3. We don't talk about technology!  We talk about leadership and business results.
Each month, members will learn powerful concepts, determine which ones make sense for them, apply them at work, have successes and make mistakes, learn, and grow.
 
It's not magic, but it's close.
 
What members will get for their $2700 annual fee:
  • 12 leadership development sessions
  • Membership in this highly exclusive club of IT leaders
  • Valuable networking (meet your peers!)
  • Brainwashing (our special way of turning technologists into business leaders)
  • Guest speakers (people who will have something of value to say...hopefully)
  • IT strategies (real ideas and strategies members can steal from GrowthWave and implement in their organizations)
  • Open forum (whining and complaining in a safe environment...or put a nicer way, peer learning - bright people sitting around a table solving real problems)
These forums were a success in 2007 and you can expect more of the same in 2008.
 
Our members learn to become business leaders within IT, making a greater difference for IT and for the business.
 
I hope you or an IT leader from your organization will join us.
