Today, businesses of all industries and all sizes can benefit from robust risk management that is easy to generate from financial analytics and other key performance metrics.  Using the risk management tools, generating interpretive data, and understanding how to apply the data insights with high organization impact is this workshop’s core focus.

2. Supply Chain Management Workshop (2PM – 5PM)

As individuals begin to learn and practice the fundamentals of supply chain and logistics, especially from the ground up, it is often helpful to know just how organizations use leading practices to design, measure, modify, and optimize their supply chain strategy. This analysis takes supply management from beyond the warehouse and into the boardroom. Learn from a business leader’s perspective about the supply management decisions that drive solid innovation.  Become familiar with professional associations, standards, and toolkits used to scope and manage large-scale improvement. This training is a real capstone to logistics and supply chain foundational content.

Being able to transfer skill through training, learning strategies and instructional media is critical. The workshop will focus on getting everything known up-front that can be key to understanding the motivation, learning styles, and key competencies of a position or role.

2. Critical thinking Workshop (2PM – 5PM)
   

Academic institutions are concerned that graduates not only understand the content of their chosen field (what to think), but know how to integrate, synthesize, and discover new paradigms and insights (how to think). Unfortunately, the critical thinking “how to think” dynamic is sometimes not deeply reinforced in higher education today, even though business and industry continuous to say that critical thinking is perhaps the most needed skill among new graduates. This training shows common critical thinking approaches and provides a methodology and approach to ensure that critical thinking is being applied to problem-solving in a structured way that works on any given subject.
