Call for presentations

If you are interested in holding a presentation or workshop at the conference, you are invited to send in your proposals by 31 January, 2012. The presentations can concern any topic related to global leadership competence, but of particular interest is the question of how this competence can be developed in managers and future leaders and how those already in leadership positions can be supported.
