Date : Tuesday 02.11.04

Details : Irish business leaders and policy makers to hear Harvard expert
A management conference featuring a top Harvard business expert will attract business leaders from across Ireland to Dublin on Tuesday 2nd November.
Over 500 corporate leaders will be visiting Dublin’s CityWest Conference Centre for the national management conference by Harvard Business School’s Professor Michael E Porter.
Professor Porter is widely acknowledged as the world's leading authority on competitive strategy.
His Irish conference, titled Competitive Strategy for Profitable Growth will attract the corporate elite to listen to the Harvard strategist who has been ranked by Accenture as "the world's leading business intellectual."
"This world class conference is a great opportunity for Ireland’s business leaders to learn from the world's leading authority on competitive strategy," says Bob Mackenzie of conference developers, Benchmark for Business.
With hundreds of influential corporate leaders set to gather in Dublin, Bob Mackenzie sees the conference as a rallying cry for Irish business.
"The conference theme of competitive strategy is one which all business must embrace; Porter's message, in an age where concerns about competitiveness and corporate failure are in the public consciousness, is both timely and relevant."
Professor Porter is head of Harvard Business School's Institute for Strategy and Competitiveness. His ideas on corporate strategy have become the foundation for the required strategy course at Harvard Business School, and taught at business schools throughout the world.
He has written 16 books and more than 100 articles. His book Competitive Strategy Techniques for Analyzing Industries and Competitors is in its 58th printing and has been translated in to 17 languages.
He has served as an adviser on competitive strategy to some of the biggest names in business, including DuPont and Procter & Gamble and he also consults to governments, including here in Ireland and to the UK government.
He said, "This is the moment to rediscover strategy and create a positive agenda. The only goal that can support a sound strategy is superior profitability."
Bob Mackenzie has no doubts about the relevance of the Harvard professor's message for Irish businesses.
"Porter is the one name on the lips of global business leaders as he presents authoritative learning on what companies must do to increase profitability - that's the value of what he is bringing to Ireland and that's why demand for places will be so high," he said.
