"These award-winning learning organizations are critical to the success of their companies," said Peter McAteer, CEO of CorpU. "We congratulate all the finalists and look forward to meeting together in May."
The Global Leadership Congress 2011, at which the awards will be given, will take place at the University of Pennsylvania's Philadelphia campus, May 9-11, 2011. This exciting mix of academic and practical knowledge is jointly hosted by CorpU and the University of Pennsylvania's Graduate School of Education. The theme of this year's Congress is Engage, Inspire, Innovate.
