Set Yourself up for Success: Become a Hot Commodity - APEX 2012
http://jillianwalker.ca APEX CONFERENCE The theme for the 2012 APEX Conference is “Breaking Boundaries”. As an executive team, we wanted to restore the focus of the conference on the APEX mission and vision. The real business world is one which cannot be accurately presented in the confines of a classroom. “Breaking Boundaries” emphasizes the leap each delegate makes in attending APEX; a conscientious decision to expand one's scope and abilities in order to best reach one’s potential. Through a series of innovative workshops, keynote presentations, and numerous networking opportunities, we invite you to break the boundaries holding you back and take your first steps to becoming a successful business professional. SESSION March 9, 2012 11:45am - 12:45pm Schulich School of Business, Room S124 Set Yourself up for Success: Become a Hot Commodity How can you differentiate yourself from your peers? How can you stand out in the workplace or community? Becoming a hot commodity is about being the whole package.
