Business ideology and management approach is considered as heart and soul of a business in particular, and of an industry as a whole. These factors differentiate high and low performers in a same industry and play a critical part in forming business strategies and management methodologies of an individual business as well as business communities.

Additionally, these business ideology and management mindset are also the key to transform a business to a sustainable development.

About Talk&Think Forum-Talk to Think
Talk&Think is a not-for-profit monthly forum (with no participation fee) co-organized by PACE Institute of Management and Good Book Project. The greatSocrates once said: “I cannot teach anybody anything, I can only make them think”. Making people think is a foundational activity of education, and when an individual truly thinks, he/she learns, learns authentically. Talk&Think was, therefore, founded to help “make people think”, and focused on core and in-depth aspects of economics, business, management, leadership, culture, education… With this spirit, the Forum attracts great support and participation of leading experts and thinkers in their fields to share the insights and wisdoms to wider communities. |
