Forum 98

Welcome

You are invited to attend Forum 98 on October 20-21, 1998 at the Tyee Motel in Tumwater. This year’s Forum theme is Beyond 2000.

As we move toward the 21^st century, many of the old rules and technologies will be replaced. Beyond the year 2000, our old rules will not apply to how we work and why people work. Technologies will change how we deliver service to our customers who have technology skills equal to or better than our staff’s.

Have you wondered why, with all the information crossing our desks, none are aimed at helping you become more effective in handling ever-changing information technologies. Have you often wished that you had a single time-effective means to get access to the latest ideas, trends, and solutions in one location? Well, Forum 98 is your chance to see the latest technologies and to share experiences. To talk to the vendors who market and support these new technologies. To attend presentations by noted speakers who can explain trends and describe solutions that have worked in the workplace. To talk to your fellow managers and peers who are experiencing similar problems or may have solved similar problems.

You simply can’t lose by attending Forum 98. Forum 98 is free and open to everyone. Bring lots of guests.

Can we count on you to spread the word about Forum 98? Please share copies of this brochure with your friends and colleagues. If you have any questions, please call 360-786-1979 and leave us a message. The IPMA’s homepage is at www.ipma-wa.com.
