Industry Forum guest speaker at QAD EMEA Customer Conference

Industry Forum Chief Executive Dr Chris Owen was invited as guest speaker to the the QAD EMEA Customer Conference where he spoke about Change Management and the common issues that were faced with implementing a change programme.

The customer conference, which was situated in the stunning Weston Park country house, allowed existing QAD customers to network with over 100 of their manufacturing peers and to receive hours of learning and networking opportunities as well as access to QAD related products and services.

Dr Owen’s presentation, through a mixture of practical and theoretical based models, focussed on how employee up skilling and development is a vital part of any change programme and a pre requisite if the programme is to be a success. There was acknowledgement amongst the delegates of these fundamental points and great interest in the tools and techniques that Industry Forum has used with its clients to implement successful change management programmes.

Dr Owen’s presentation was concluded with two case study videos of international companies that Industry Forum has successfully worked with on change programmes, an exclusive first public showing of the newly commissioned films.
