networking and interactivity a key learning component of its education program for the first annual EEA Networking Expo, June 3-5, 2010, at the Doral Arrowwood in Rye Brook, NY.
One of the key objectives of the EEA Networking Expo is to help organizations and management create a formal blueprint for the practical implementation of Enterprise Engagement strategies and tactics. Unlike traditional conferences, the Enterprise Engagement Alliance will involve business practitioners in the development and sharing of content in order to tap the expertise of as many people as possible to create the Networking Expo education program and an Enterprise Engagement Best Practices Manual.
Expert speakers will share information on Enterprise Engagement and then facilitate interactive sessions on key elements of engagement. This education concept is based on the premise that attendees will learn more, and organizations will derive greater benefits, if they hear from the
broadest possible number of viewpoints.

Improving performance through Engagement;
Breaking down Barriers to Success
Enterprise Engagement is a new approach to improving performance based on engaging the
key people (customers, channel partners, employees, and vendors) in a way that was never
before possible. This program isn’t only about how it’s done, but how it should be done
based on research and the practical experience of practitioners and your fellow attendees.
Learn about the emergence of a new business dedicated to helping organizations improve
performance through people.
Answers to your questions and challenges about engagement will come not only in the
education sessions, but in roundtables immediately following each session, during which
attendees can share ideas among themselves and with the presenters on better ways to
engage people across the organization.
On Thursday, June 3, sessions will focus on the critical audiences in business: Consumers,
EdUcAtIon Channel Partners, Salespeople, Employees and Vendors. Sessions on Friday, June 4 will
focus on the critical tactics of engagement: Performance Measurement, Communication,
pRogRAM Surveys and Polls, Technology, Employee Recognition, Loyalty Programs and Incentive
dIREctoRS Programs. All attendees will get a blueprint for the implementation of Enterprise Engage-
(photos from l-R.) ment based on key findings from all of the interactive sessions that can be applied at the
strategic and tactical levels.
