Smart
Moves Seminar
The internationally acclaimed
seminar that corporations such as
MGM and Warner Bros. have used to
train their move team prior to major
moves.
Moving is a job that seems simple.
Yet in reality, it requires complex
planning, careful execution and
constant monitoring. Whether it’s
across three time zones, down the
street or within the same campus
setting, moving is a major job. Just
moving within the same building can
cost from $400 to over a $1,000 per
person. Senior management is often
incredulous when told a move’s
estimated cost. And mistakes are
costly, as one firm found out –
their bill was 46% higher than the
mover’s estimate!
Many companies tell of morale
problems and drops in productivity
as high as 38% in the weeks before
and after a move. This cost one
insurance company $3 million in lost
sales! No wonder two-thirds of the
people in charge of a move are fired
or demoted afterwards. Why? It
wasn’t because they were
incompetent; but because one small
item slipped by them and then blew
up in their faces.
Covered in this fact filled program
are the:
-
11 most common problems that you
must overcome
-
7
rules of thumb to make your move
easier
-
4
elements that can make or break
your move
-
8
easy steps to making a
successful move
Over 400,000 people have been moved
by companies attending this program.

Space 2005 – Real Solutions to
Your Space Problems
Learn an integrated approach to
making your project dollars go
further through energy reduction and
employee productivity strategies.
You can reduce energy costs 40% or
more! Giving you a 30–50% return on
investment. Plus, the savings can be
used to pay the upgrade costs.
In North America, 90% of commercial
buildings are over 10 years old.
Yet, most cost saving technologies
were created in the last 5 to 7
years. Unfortunately, many new
buildings are still being built
using 20-year old technology. A
national study shows operating costs
can vary as much as 35% among
similar buildings in the same city.
Ironically, it often costs more to
build a less efficient building.
Research shows the workplace has an
impact on productivity and the
bottom line. Unfortunately, not all
workplace concepts effect
productivity positively. In fact,
some common design, engineering and
operating practices have a negative
effect! Learn where and how to
enhance employee productivity not
hinder it.
Covered in this information packed
seminar is an integrated approach to
make your project dollars go further
– including:
-
5
steps to reduce energy and
construction costs
-
10 workplace qualities that can
increase employee productivity
and the bottom line
-
