can produce competitive advantages and commercial success. The Renault-Nissan
Alliance is a unique automotive industry business model that ensures

seven-year track record and future potential.

SAID IT AT THE DETROIT ECONOMIC CLUB...

Panel Discussion: Crain's Detroit Business 40 Under 40 Honorees
|
| November 6, 2006 - A group of three Crain's
Detroit Business 40 Under 40 Honorees delivered solid
professional development advice to the Detroit Economic Club
Junior Executives as well as other DEC members and guests.
The select panel of Crain's Detroit Business 40 Under 40
honorees included Jon Campbell, Sr., president of JMC Inc.; Michele
Hodges, president of the Troy
Chamber of Commerce; and Denise Williams, dean of Admissions
at the University
of Detroit Mercy. Handling conflicts in the workplace
is "best dealt with head-on, with the goal being a win-win
and immediate resolution," Campbell said. Campbell
also advised entrepreneurs "to be willing to do all jobs...
do the things no one else wants to do and you will be quietly
leading
by example." Hodges strongly advocated finding a
mentor who can teach good habits. She takes a different view
of networking: "To be effective in your job, you must expose
yourself to different people, circumstances and situations which
will lead to balanced thinking," said Hodges. When
asked about educational admission trends as a result of the languishing
Michigan economy, Williams, a clear proponent of continuing education,
encourages "young professionals to invest in themselves,
particularly in tough economic times." |

Beth Chappell, President and CEO, Detroit
Economic Club |

Now that the election is over, it is time to turn our focus back
to business. In the weeks and months ahead, the Detroit Economic Club
will feature some of the world's top business executives, starting
November 16 with a meeting featuring Carlos Ghosn, president & CEO
of the Renault-Nissan Alliance. Following that will be the DEC's Annual
Economic Outlook Meeting, showcasing some of
the brightest minds in finance,
automotive and construction in a panel discussion.
Not long after that, the Detroit region will kick into auto show mode. The Detroit Economic Club will be part of the action, with a live unveiling of the North American Car and Truck of the Year finalists at Cobo Center on December 13 and the annual North American International Auto Show Luncheon on January 12.
I hope to see you at one of these upcoming meetings.
All the best,
Beth |
