Discovery management tools for tomorrow's paper industry.

Surviving today's industry conditions requires thinking ahead and planning for the future. In planning for the future of the industry, managers face the dilemma of making critical decisions with limited information.

PIMA recognizes the great need to equip managers today with the decision making and problem solving tools for tomorrow. Industry supplier Kepner-Tregoe coaches its employees and members of other organizations on management skills they will need in a constantly changing industry. Kepner-Tregoe makes this valuable "toolbox" available to its employees and now to PIMA members, as well.

PIMA offers you the opportunity to discover valuable insights offered through Kepner-Tregoe's program, "Problem Solving & Decision Making." Professionals from Kepner-Tregoe will present the program at PIMA's Mid-Atlantic Division Fall Conference 2001, October 2-4 at Toftrees Resort & Conference Center in State College, Pennsylvania. Don't miss out on the tools for tomorrow--be sure to mark your calendars today!

In addition to a valuable educational program, a PIMA golf outing is planned for the Conference. Toftrees Resort has consistently been rated a four-star golf course by Golf Digest "Places to Play" and one of the top golf conference center resorts by Meetings and Conventions Magazine. Toftrees is an exclusive, secluded resort, nestled among 1,500 acres of state forestland and the rolling hills of Central Pennsylvania.
