Registration for the
I-CAR Industry Event is open
and available on the I-CAR website. It will be held July
19-21 in Salt Lake City at the Sheraton Salt Lake City
Hotel.
Peter Senge, Ph.D., is the keynote speaker at this
year’s event. He is a senior lecturer at the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology and author of the
book, The Fifth Discipline: The Art and Practice of The
Learning Organization.
At the 2011 I-CAR Industry Event, Senge will highlight
the event’s theme of “Technology & Education – Achieving
New Heights” through discussing the importance of
learning organizations in today’s business world and how
organizations can enhance the capacity of all people to
work productively toward common goals.
In 2008, Senge was named by the Wall Street Journal
among the top 20 most influential business thinkers.
The Journal of Business Strategy (September/October
1999) named Senge as one of the 24 people who had the
greatest influence on business strategy over the last
100 years, while The Financial Times (2000) named him as
one of the world’s “top management gurus.” Business Week
(October 2001) rated him as one of The Top (ten)
Management Gurus.
John Van Alstyne, I-CAR CEO & President said, “I-
CAR is pleased to have Senge as its keynote speaker at
the 2011 I-CAR Industry Event. Understanding how
businesses and organizations can maximize their
potential through education and training can help to
develop strategies that foster a more efficient work
place, which is a common goal among many organizations.”
Van Alstyne continued, “In addition to Senge’s
presentation, I-CAR will make an announcement regarding
training for Career and Technical Schools and Colleges;
