What’s new at EMEC 2011Flash Point The latest in innovative sessions, Flash Point debuts Internationally in Düsseldorf as a presentation of multiple talented and knowledgeable speakers in a condensed session format.   Four to six speakers have 15 minutes each to present their unique perspective on varying topics followed by an opportunity for attendees to interact                Solution RoomAs an attendee-led session, Solution Room gives attendees the power to collaboratively create solutions to challenges in business. This room will be “unconference,” as there will be neither presentations nor speakers; rather there will be speakers from concurrent session available to facilitate. Using white boards, collaboration and imagination, this time allows groups to determine best practices from their peers.  Chapter Best of the BestMembers at MPI chapters produce excellent content, and in order to bring it to the larger EMEC audience, we have been challenged to submit our  best education for a chance to have it presented to EMEC attendees. The best three submissions will become part of the schedule of content, and perhaps part of the permanent schedule of EMEC education.
