With revenues falling, unemployment rising and pressure on increasing the bottom line ever-present, leaders are under greater pressure than ever to get results. From Madoff and the Ponzi schemes to massive bank bailouts followed by huge executive bonuses, business leaders have lost sight of their values in favor of the bottom line.

For our March Executive Forum, Enterprise Network welcomes entrepreneur and best-selling author, Peter H. Thomas. As in his new book, Be Great: The Five Foundations of an Extraordinary Life in Business - and Beyond, Thomas will share his business experiences and lessons learned to illustrate what it means to be successful in business without compromising your values.

Thomas was founder and developer of Century 21 Canada and the developer of several billion dollars of real estate projects in North America, Thomas understands the challenges of succeeding in business without compromising what you stand for.

Thomas will address key take-a-ways including:

• Do values still have a place in the boardroom?
• How to manage without hurting the bottom line.
• What happens when values are put aside for greed?

Distinguish yourself as an effective leader by living your values. It is a true measure of achievement. Please join us on Thursday, March 18, 2010 at 7 a.m. to be inspired and learn how to incorporate these simple concepts and strategies to augment your leadership skills by aligning your values with your business.
