IBM - CEO Study 2010: Global Discussion - Live Virtual Event

Join the editors of SmarterTechnology on Tuesday, May 18, at 9 AM Pacific/Noon Eastern for the release of IBM's much-anticipated 2010 CEO Study, aggregating interviews of over 1500 CEOs from 60 countries and over 30 industries -- on the changing nature of their roles, the global economy, sustainability, information technology and other key topics. What external impacts do CEOs expect to loom largest in the coming years, and how does geography factor into those perspectives? How can CEOs use the information explosion to their advantage? In an increasingly interconnected world, which leadership qualities and management actions and styles enabled certain organizations to outperform their peers over both the long term and the short term?

IBM SmarterTechnology invites you to participate in a global discussion of IBM's 2010 CEO Study, live on the web and in Second Life. Beginning with a group-viewing of IBM's first CEO Study livestream at 8 AM ET and culminating in a live discussion of the report with visiting CEOs and special guests at Noon (9 AM Pacific) before the 1 PM Livestream.
