Nevada-based M3 Planning, makers of the online strategic planning tool MyStrategicPlan, have been tapped to travel to Bahrain to run a strategic planning summit for some of the region's top businesses.
(PRWEB) November 6, 2009 -- Middle Eastern business leaders have tapped global strategic planning experts from Nevada-based M3 Planning to lead a summit on strategic corporate planning, aimed at strengthening the long-term economic strength of some of the largest organizations in their region. From November 16 to 17 of this year executives from throughout the region will gather at the Sheraton Bahrain Hotel in Manama, Bahrain for training to better equip their organizations to evaluate current opportunities and align organizational objectives toward corporate vision and missions.
According to a recent report by the International Monetary Fund, the current global financial crisis has contributed to a slowdown in oil revenues in the Middle East throughout the current year. Though the region has tapped into profits from previous years in order to weather the economic downturn, regional leaders have decided to take action by holding this unique summit with strategic planning specialists from M3 Planning.
Summit presenter Erica Olsen says that organizations in the Middle East have developed a sense of urgency around planning. “Although this region was buffered from some of the crisis, these organizations are concerned with sustainable strategies to carry forth well after the economic crisis is over.”
Participants for training include executives from some of the largest companies of the region, such as Al Muhaidib Group, Saudi Cable Company, United Gulf Bank, Najran Cement Company, Aluminium Bahrain, Ministry of Housing and Bank Sohar.
Topics covered in this summit include: re-shaping organizations’ strategic plans to be on par with their proposed direction, designing and developing a strategic plan towards realization of corporate vision and mission, thriving in times of constraint through alternative growth strategies and aligning business plans toward complementing strategic plans.
Olsen, having recently also lead a summit for executives in Dubai as well, says that M3 Planning is proud to be selected to lead this summit. “Our team is excited to assist business leaders in Bahrain, and we share the excitement and interest in the region’s long-term success.”
