Our Forum + Clinic Series probes the state of the art across a broad range of contemporary
issues. Each conference is unique and is offered only once. The topics vary from year to year, but
all conferences feature both case studies of leading-edge companies presented by executives of
these companies and tutorials presented by Dr. Hammer and other leading scholars and thinkers.
We have presented more than 80 seminars on different topics, such as supply chain integration,
ERP implementation, new measurement systems, and six sigma. These seminars have featured some 600
speakers including Bill Gates, Michael Porter, and Larry Bossidy. They have been attended by nearly
30,000 people.
The Forum + Clinic Series is famous for its unique format: no long-winded speeches, no generic
speakers, no pedestrian ideas.
- Each case study session opens with a brief and focused presentation by a senior business executive.
- We quickly move to interactive and lively discussion. Assumptions are challenged, and the air is charged with the excitement of new ideas and creative debate.
- The tutorial sessions are pragmatic and hard-hitting, combining provocative ideas with practical techniques.
- We maintain an informal and participatory style throughout. The tone is candid, irreverent, and pragmatic. The Forum + Clinic is informative, stimulating, and fast-paced. It is a unique experience.
Topics of conferences are subject to change.
