2009 North American Regional Meeting
Featuring
Afterburner Fighter Pilots
General Session - Tuesday afternoon
Learn how to:
- Be a team that works as one
- Be a team that works for the same goals
- Be a team that not only knows how to plan a mission - but how to execute that mission flawlessly from start to finish
|
Today's business environment is nothing short of combat — hostile and fast-changing. Corporate survival depends on execution. Who better to teach how to execute flawlessly in this environment than Afterburner's international team of real fighter pilots?
Afterburner has trained over 100 of the Fortune 500 companies worldwide to do what makes a company and its people successful: Execute a winning plan. "Leading the World's Top Corporations to Flawless Execution" is more than a slogan - it is the company's foundation. : : Afterburner Website : :
The instructors for this seminar will be an ethnically diverse group of fighter pilots. They will teach the Flawless Execution Model — the process used by fighter pilots around the world to execute missions when the stakes are high and failure is not an option. And, the best part is that participants are actively involved! After a keynote session, the entire AGN group will be broken into "Squadrons" of 15 and sent to break-out sessions to use the skills they've just learned to plan a real mission.
Tuesday afternoon is filled with learning opportunities. See other learning opportunities in store for you all day Monday and Tuesday morning!

CONFERENCE CANCELLATION POLICY
Written cancellations received before 5:00 pm US Mountain Time on FRIDAY, MAY 8, 2009 will not incur a cancellation fee. Cancellations received after that time will result in a cancellation fee of costs incurred by AGN-NA.
COMPANIONS
Breakfast is open to all AGN attendees and their companions Monday - Thursday from 7 - 9 a.m. This is a wonderful opportunity for your companion to get to know other AGN companions, welcome new members' companions, and see dear friends. A Monday companion tour is planned (see Social Program), with Tuesday and Wednesday as free time so all companions may do whatever they wish.
SOCIAL EVENT CANCELLATION POLICY
If you must cancel a registration for any social or companion event for you and/or your companion, please do so by MAY 8, 2009. We must guarantee numbers to our vendors in advance. These numbers can be raised, but not lowered. Therefore, if you cancel after MAY 8 or onsite, your firm will be billed as if you and/or your companion had attended.
WEATHER IN DENVER
Mild and Mile High. The biggest surprise for visitors to Denver is the climate. The arid conditions bring only 8 to 15 inches of annual precipitation and locals wake up to more than 300 days of sunshine a year. That’s more annual hours of sun than Miami and San Diego. In summer, Denver enjoys low relative humidity, making for beautiful, sun-filled days and cool, comfortable evenings. The average daily high temperature in May is a mild 72 degrees Fahrenheit. The mild weather is due in part to the city's altitude: 5,280 feet above sea level, or exactly a mile high.
