Leaders, domestically and globally, over the past two years became aware of the need for resilience, and restructuring their organizations for a period of survival and stabilization. It is now time for leaders to rebound and to take the next steps beyond stabilization. They must refocus, inspire and innovate to lead successfully.

The SPIM 2012 Conference will present research and practice that will assist us as leaders, and our organizations’ leaders to Refocus, Inspire and Innovate. Session presenters are drawn from a broad range of highly regarded researchers and practitioners both those who are new to SPIM and seasoned SPIM members. The presenters will focus on critical research and real life applications to current issues, challenges, and opportunities facing leaders and their organizations.

Looking for a welcoming atmosphere in addition to a great program? SPIM members make visitors and new SPIM members feel welcome. We actively interact and network throughout the conference. We focus on being good colleagues through our now traditional Friday night host dinners and the Saturday night recognition and awards dinner.
