Headline Speakers Include Senior Executives from Hewlett-Packard, Fidelity Real Estate Company, Cordless Group and the United States General Services Administration
Sydney, (ANTARA News/Xinhua-PRNewswire-AsiaNet) - A highly impressive group of leading international speakers will provide valuable insight into the latest economic, technological, human resource and sustainability trends impacting the corporate real estate industry at the annual CoreNet Global Summit, to be held June 29 - July 1, 2008 at the Sheraton on the Park in Sydney.
Renowned international speakers confirmed to address the Summit include:
-- Mr. Chris Hood, Program Manager, the HP Workplace, Hewlett-Packard, San Francisco;
-- Ms. Sarah K. Abrams, President of the Fidelity Real Estate Company, Boston;
-- Mr. Philip Ross, CEO, Cordless Group, London;
-- and Mr. Kevin Kampschroer, Director of Expert Services, Office of Applied Science, United States General Services Administration, Washington.
All presentations will support the Summit theme "Generations@Work: How Corporate Real Estate Can Bridge the Talent Gap," - a timely topic given the skill shortage presently faced by Australia's real estate industry.
"The overseas speakers confirmed for our event bring a broad base of knowledge and expertise to the Summit stage, and through their presentations will share insight designed to help corporate real estate executives lead their organizations through times of transition and economic uncertainty," commented Mr. Peter Chenoweth, CoreNet Global's Region Director Australia/New Zealand.
"The CoreNet Global Sydney Summit therefore provides a perfect opportunity for corporate real estate professionals based in Australia to exchange information and points of view with global speakers who have significant influence within their respective fields," he continued.
According to Mr. Chenoweth, the conference's comprehensive agenda will, in particular, touch upon a wide range of inter-related corporate real estate and talent management issues with specific general session topics to be addressed including:
-- A Global, Regional and Local Business Outlook;
-- Understanding the Mindset of Generation Y;
-- The Changing Dynamics of Real Estate Talent: From Implementing Strategy to Influencing Decisions;
-- and Creating a Sustainable Workforce: Space, People and Technology.
A highlight of the event will be a special, inspirational presentation by Mr. Tashi Tenzing, who born in Darjeeling, India in 1965, is the grandson of Tenzing Norgay, who with Sir Edmund Hillary, made the first ascent of Mount Everest on May 28, 1965.
"Mr. Tenzing will vividly speak about the world of Himalayan mountaineering from fresh and unique viewpoints - the Tenzing lineage and his grandfather's achievements," stated Mr. Chenoweth.
As the final keynote presenter on the second day of the Summit, Mr. Chenoweth concluded that Mr. Tenzing's talk would provide the perfect close to the conference by delivering a message that promised to "uplift spirits and inspire us all to ascend to the peaks of our professional and personal lives."
