Top Management Night is a traditional program in which APICS recognizes and supports their dedicated members and management teams.  Part of the theme for this year’s program will focus on offering a “train-the-trainer” event on supply chain management.  As organizations struggle to compete in this global marketplace, many often cut this level of training.  However simple things can be done to elevate the knowledge needed in your organization to continue to improve performance.  This program will give attendees some pragmatic tools and real-world ideas that can be applied at the tactical level within their own organizations to help them be more competitive.
