BDPA & ITSMF Create IT Fusion Leadership Seminar Series (Cincinnati)

BDPA Cincinnati and Information Technology Senior Management Forum (ITSMF) are collaborating to bring another IT Fusion Event to the Cincinnati USA region! BETF-Blog readers are encouraged to participate in this IT Fusion event to welcome Kenneth Frank (Senior Vice President, Alcatel Lucent) as he shares insight on his journey from the Classroom to the Boardroom.

These IT Fusion events provide a forum where mid-career IT professionals can network with peers, senior IT leaders, and business leaders from various industries in the Greater Cincinnati Area.

ITSMF provides a supportive network for enhancing the leadership skills of the IT executives who make up our membership as well as an outstanding mentoring program that helps dedicated mid-level managers grow into executive roles. BDPA is a member-focused technology organization that remains committed to excellence and providing a wide spectrum of resources to its stakeholders. The organization is a catalyst for professional growth and technical development for those in the IT industry.

Here are the logistics for this upcoming IT Fusion leadership seminar:

• When: - Monday December 10, 2007; Networking/Reception: 6 pm - 6:40 pm (Hors d'oeuvres, drawings - bring your business cards!); Program begins at 6:45 pm
• Where: - Marriott Kingsgate Conference Center (Click here for directions)
• Who: - Those in technology as well as friends and supporters of BDPA or ITSMF
• Cost: - This event is free, however you must RSVP

I attended the last IT Fusion Event and found it to be extremely enlightening from both an educational and networking perspective. In fact, it was at the last IT Fusion event that I first learned about the whole Second Life universe. I am known as Villager Barbosa in SL in case any of you are active over there.

I am hopeful that all 49 BDPA chapters will find ways to collaborate with ITSMF. BDPA Atlanta chapter did it successfully a few months ago. Now Cincinnati chapter is showing how it can be done. Is your chapter interested in learning more or meeting a local ITSMF executive?

Anyhow, for more information on this December 10th IT Fusion event you can contact BDPA Cincinnati chapter by phone (513.956-0636) or email (mailto:info@bdpa-cincy.org?).
