- Atlanta, GA (1888PressRelease) August 20, 2010 - David Nour, author of Relationship Economics® and CEO of The Nour Group, Inc., has been selected to present at the Oregon Association of Nurseries' 2010 Farwest Show Manager's Circle. The annual Farwest Show is being held August 26-28 in Portland, Oregon and is one of the leading nursery and greenhouse industry trade shows in the United States.
The Farwest Show features a keynote and town hall discussion led by David Nour, 40-hours of continuing education and over 600 exhibitors for industry professionals. The Show is designed to expose attendees to the latest in the nursery and garden center industry.
"We're happy to partner with David again for the 2010 Farwest Show," says Allan Niemi, Interim Executive Director. "He presented Relationship Economics® at our Annual Convention last September to a delighted audience, and I'm confident that his insights on Adaptive Innovation™ will be particularly valuable for the Farwest Manager's Circle in Portland later this month."
"I'm thrilled to be invited back to speak to this exciting group of nursery professionals," Nour adds. "Especially now, since there is an increasing sense of urgency in the industry to create a sustainable competitive advantage. Companies must develop a relationship-centric culture with the courage to fail and learn from those failures. Adaptive Innovation™ is exactly how this competitive advantage can be realized."
Nour will discuss how the key to delivering value in today's rapidly changing market is innovation, driven by leaders who build high-performing teams focused on what's feasible now and what's possible for the future. Those in attendance will benefit by gaining a deeper understanding of true innovation, identifying and building 'disruptive' business models, as well as learn how to maximize their investments in innovation.
