IAEE > CEM > 2009 CEM Advanced Institute Chicago
 

 


A More Sustainable You
Wednesday, 22 July 2009
McCormick Place, Chicago, IL
(co-locating with TS2)

Participation in the CEM Advanced Institute is strictly limited to current CEMs and meets the two-year recertification requirements for the CEM designation.

Much of our conversation about sustainability rightly focuses on products and material consumption, but the basic concept also has relevance for your professional identity and personal choices.  How sustainable is your current level of knowledge, the way in which you approach your work, the manner in which you live?  What do you currently believe or do that, while perfectly acceptable for the present, is not sustainable for the short- or long-term future? Learning to apply the traditional 3Rs of sustainability — reduce, reuse, recycle — to our personal and professional life will offer insights about new ways of being and thinking that can ensure a more productive and sustainable you.

Join us for a day of interactive discussions and exercises focused on creating a more sustainable you. Specific content segments will include strengths-based leadership principles, managing preparation for the future, self-examination of your current personal and professional portfolio for its sustainability and waste, and fresh and fun ideas that kids can teach us about resilience, leadership, and life.

After participating you will be able to:

  • Leverage individual strengths to make the contributions that matter most
  • Perform more efficiently and more productively through the use of simple techniques and tools that streamline work management in an interconnected era
  • Recognize how to refresh your professional competencies and relevance in the future

Leading the day is Jeffrey Cufaude, an educator and facilitator well-known for designing and leading engaging learning experiences that effectively blend theory to practice in enjoyable and innovative ways.  In addition to being a long-time contributor in many capacities to ASAE & the Center for Association Leadership, Cufaude has been an Expo!Expo! speaker, as well as the designer and facilitator for IAEE’s Future Leaders Institute in 2007.  He is collaborating with IAEE leaders to ensure the 2009 CEM Advanced Institute leaves you energized and better prepared to sustain a professional career and personal lifestyle that is big enough to matter, but small enough to manage.

Notice Regarding Unauthorized Housing Providers
You may have been contacted by an unauthorized hotel/housing provider purporting to service TS². Please note, because these room “pirates” are often unable to provide TS² attendees and exhibitors with complete service, TS² works to prevent the unauthorized contact of TS² customers as well as the inappropriate use of exhibitor names and the TS² name. Please be assured that TS² is committed to providing you quality services to make your TS² experiences positive, and we will vigorously pursue these organizations to prevent unauthorized contact.
