HELLO, Hidden Tech members - come as my guest (once per person) to an excellent educational dinner forum, about getting great ideas from your employees

On Wednesday, June 11th, 5-8:30pm, the UMass Family Business Center is proud to present UMass Professor Alan Robinson, author of 3 best selling books about corporate creativity and high performance idea systems, speaking about how to unlock the opportunities for improvement by building an idea system that taps the front line employees ability to come up with the best suggestions for solving your company’s problems.

80% of a company’s productivity gains are from the ideas of front line employees (do the math: only 20% comes from upper management!)
