The symposium will be centered on review and presentation of a selected subset of insights submitted. We have established a template for the insights. Each insight is 1 page in length.
How to Write your Insights
Please write these insights as if your insight was going to be published in the Harvard Business Review. Make sure they are easy to read, no lingo, and for a global business audience. Your submission will be reviewed and out of selected to be part of our final product. Our goal is to obtain 101 insights. The event should prove to be a unique experience and provide many ground breaking insights.
