Join Business Report in honoring the 2018 Top 100 Private Companies in the Capital Region.
A luncheon is scheduled for Tuesday, Sept. 25, at the Crowne Plaza Executive Center.
The keynote speaker will be the accurate and irreverent Loren Scott, LSU economist. He will once again unveil his economic trends forecast for Louisiana and Baton Rouge, delivered in a style of homespun humor known as “economic comedy.” He is on the 50-member National Business Economic Issues Council, which meets quarterly to discuss issues of state, national and international interest. Scott is co-developer of the Louisiana econometric model, a model used for providing annual forecasts of the Louisiana economy.
Doors open at 11:15 a.m., with the luncheon beginning at 11:45 a.m. EATEL Business, Fishman Haygood, Mercedes-Benz of Baton Rouge, WAFB-TV and Regions are sponsoring the event.
Tickets to the luncheon are $55 per person or $550 for a reserved table of 10. Get tickets.
Included in the ticket price is admission to that morning’s Louisiana Business Symposium, spotlighting strategies for creating a positive workplace environment and solving “people problems.”
The sessions, presented by the Greater Baton Rouge Society for Human Resource Management, will be led by Jennifer Ledet of Ledet Management Consulting.
The first session, “Amplify Your Influence to Accelerate Your Success,” will teach attendees to identify and leverage their existing strengths and create a positive workplace environment. It is scheduled for 9:30 to 10:15 a.m. The second session, “People Problems … Solved,” will focus on tearing down silos to improve teamwork, collaboration and mutual respect, with tips for enhancing employee engagement. It is scheduled for 10:30 to 11:15 a.m.
