We are greatly honored for having at the Summit Professor Harry Kraemer from Kellogg’s School of Management. Mr. Kraemer will present something that every business executive, manager and entrepreneur in Macedonia and the Balkan region wants to learn: How to be the best and build a world-class organization through values-based leadership. This is in essence the title of Mr. Kraemer’s latest book that contains insights from his years-long experience as a CEO of a multi-billion dollar company, board member of a number of companies and his place on business and educational councils.

Let’s think for a moment. Is there a world-class organization in Macedonia or any of the Balkan countries? The answer is less important than the following conclusion: If you start building a solid organization now, it may well be that in the next five or ten years that organization will become one that is world-class. We invite you to come and learn and be inspired by some of the best people in business.

Mr. Kraemer will speak in a Q & A session with Mike Zafirovski, titled “Conversation on Values-Based Leadership for Building Inclusive Societies”. Mr. Zafirovski, former CEO of several Fortune 500 companies, an advisor and business mentor, will present the most interesting questions to Mr. Kramer. We are very excited for this event, as we will see how the minds of great business leaders work. We are also happy to announce that this particular event of the Macedonia Economic Summit will be open to young professionals free of charge. Following the Q & A session, Mr. Kraemer will present free copies of his book Becoming the Best that he is going to sign personally. We invite you to return to our website for more details on how to be part of this event.

Also, a quick reminder that priority registration for the Summit ends on October 31. Following this day, the cost of participating at the summit will go up. Act on time to guarantee you and your company are featured in the Summit catalogue.
