Pacific Rim Seminar

Honolulu, Hawai’i
March 24-25 and March 27-28 
Two Identical Programs

            Aloha!  WACUBO is delighted to announce the inaugural Pacific Rim Seminar, which will be offered in Honolulu in March. President Mike Unebasami has stressed the need for training for members from Hawai’i and the Pacific Rim. The cost of traveling to the mainland for workshops is often prohibitive; by holding programs in Hawai’i, many more members can be served.

            We will offer two identical programs, one on March 24-25, and the second on March 27-28 to maximize opportunities to attend. With two programs offered, the smaller groups will enable participants to interact and get to know their colleagues. Besides the technical and management training offered, a goal of WACUBO professional development is to facilitate development of professional friendships and networks to assist members in sharing information, experiences, solutions and best practices.

            The program is open to all, not just our Hawai’i and Pacific Rim colleagues. Participants will stay in the Royal Hawaiian Hotel, and transportation will be provided to Kapiolani Community College, where seminar sessions will be held. Kapiolani’s Culinary Arts students will provide catering services; all who have partaken rave about the delicious food, lovely presentation and wonderful service.

The program will include general sessions and breakout sessions. General sessions include ethics, motivation, risk management – avoiding litigation landmines and humor in the workplace. Participants will have a choice of topics during four concurrent session periods, enabling customization of the workshop experience. Concurrent session topics include an entrepreneurial approach to auxiliary enterprises; dealing with difficult people, reducing risk in employee terminations, facilities management, sustainability, strategic budgeting, EEO issues, internal controls, power and influence and working with multiple generations.

We look forward to seeing you in Paradise!
