          PRISM ATTENDS PEOPLESOFT LEADERSHIP SUMMIT

Houston, Texas … May 1, 2002 – Kent Edwards, Principal and Founder of PRISM Consulting Group, has just returned from PeopleSoft, Inc.’s Leadership Summit 2002 in Las Vegas, NV.  The annual invitation-only event for senior executives addresses strategic business issues and the impact of technology on business performance, processes, and profitability.

 

The focus of this year’s conference was the concept of the Real-Time Enterprise, and how real-time business can dramatically improve an organization’s performance and lower costs.  Attendees learned firsthand how organizations are leveraging the power of the Internet to connect people – customers, suppliers, partners, and employees – to their business processes.

 

Outstanding presentations included those by Craig Conway, President and CEO of PeopleSoft; Geoffrey Colvin, Editorial Director of Fortune magazine; and Dr. Michael Hammer, author of the bestseller The Agenda: What Every Business Must Do to Dominate the Decade.  The featured keynote speaker was Jack Welch, former CEO of General Electric, who shared his insights on corporate leadership and recounted his experience growing General Electric market value from $13 billion to $500 billion.
