DCCCII on the lead in DATE 2008 Business Trainings

In celebration of the 10th Davao Trade Expo DATE, DCCCII will once again conduct productive and constructive business training pertinent to the increasing demands of these trying times.

These trainings and seminars, to be staged at the VIP Room, Coco’s Restaurant at Davcon, are in consonance with three themes that constantly pound the business world: Finance, Entrepreneurship/HRM, and Marketing.

On the onset of DATE 2008 on October 23 at 2:00-4:00, money-handling problems will be taken into center stage through a training entitled “Make More Money: Manage your Funds (The Blue Ocean Strategy)”. This encourages entrepreneurs to take advantage of the simplicity and applicability of the renowned Blue Ocean Strategy in eliminating or reducing these common financial problems.

The resource speaker for this training is Professor Freddie Serapio, a distinguished mentor of Basic, Strategic Marketing, Sales Management, and Strategic Management in the Ateneo de Davao University. He currently holds the position as the Academic Program Director for Marketing.

The trainings for the second day will come across ideas that will revolve around innovations, strategies, and human capital in lieu of providing good customer service and effective human relations.

Anchored on the first half of the second day, Mr. Newell Cubacub, will give a back-to-back in-depth training/seminar on efficient and commendable customer service.

Being an expert consultant in Human Resource Development and Management, Viado will provide a training that will help entrepreneurs get the best out of human capital, which is often neglected by most companies.
