Dear Colleagues and Friends,
What does it mean to create a legacy for your organisation? What does it mean to leave a lasting footprint for your business? Join us on a three-day journey to ponder how we, as individuals and as organisations , will impact the future.
The EFQM forum 2008 will expand the concept of high performance to contend with the growing complexity and uncertainty of your business environment. This year's Forum has been labelled as one congress within the French Presidency of the European Union.
The EFQM forum is one of the most prestigious events on organisational excellence attracting hundreds of business leaders from Europe and beyond to learn, interact and network. To support leaders in their need to implement their strategies, EFQM shares what works amongst its members organisations by applying its know-how and extracting leading real world practices. Thanks to this annual event, active leaders share these practices centred on topical business issues through listening to inspirational speakers and learning from practical experiences and knowledge.
The EFQM Forum culminates in a gala celebration to recognise the annual winners of the EFQM Excellence Award. This year, we will have the pleasure of celebrating with these winners in an inspiring and beautiful venue - under the Pyramid in the Musée du Louvre.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank several French organisations for their support and more specifically all the individuals for their contribution in preparation of the event. Their support is crucial in helping us to create this successful event.
In my role as Chairman of the EFQM Forum 2008, please allow me to officially invite you to Paris, one of the world's leading business and cultural centres, and to the Forum itself. We look forward to welcoming each one of you to the CNIT on 28 October.
