Asia CEO Forum with Dr. Bernie Villegas on January 13, 2015 by Grace Bondad Nicolas

The first Asia CEO Forum of 2015 will feature Dr. Bernie Villegas, widely considered the country’s foremost economist and one of the most important in Southeast Asia. Be with us on Tuesday, January 13 (next week) at the Dusit Thani Makati.  CONFIRM your attendance and payment on the Official Event Website at www.asia-ceo.org (Visa, M/C, Amex accepted).

Start the year off by hearing what’s in store for the future of Philippines and the Asia Pacific region:
+ Will a new government turn back Philippines to the bad old days of self-destructive economic policies and over-the-top corruption?
+ How much longer can growth in remittances and BPO continue? Are long-waited reversals around the corner?
+ Will tourism be a viable growth sector for the future or will infrastructure deficiencies throttle it in the cradle?

Hear Bernie answer these questions and give a complete overview of the Philippine, Asian and global economies. Dr. Bernie Villegas has a PhD from Harvard University and was one of its youngest ever teaching fellows (at age 21). He was previously economics professor at IESE Business School in Barcelona - ranked as one of the world's best. Bernie has written numerous best-selling management publications and has been special advisor to 6 Philippine Presidents.

Bernie Villegas also holds the record for the highest number of attendees of any Asia CEO Forum event despite last speaking almost 3 years ago. Join us to have the “Rock Star Economist” tell what you need to know about the economy and political environment we all operate in.

Which companies are winning the battle for talent in the Philippines?




Like it or not, there is a battle for talent going on in the Philippines and companies that fail to prioritise attracting and retaining top talent, will find themselves losing their competitive edge to rival companies. To help you win this battle, we take a look at the leading companies in the Philippines and the secret weapons behind their success:
  • What is Convergys doing to help prospective applicants meet job requirements?
  • How does Lexmark make its employees its competitive advantage?
  • What is “impact sourcing” and how is it helping Accenture access talent outside the major cities?

Benedict Hernandez, BPO Service Delivery Operations Lead from Accenture will be speaking at the 2nd annual Leadership and Talent Transformation Summit on the 10th-11th March in Manila, Philippines.

 In his session, he will be sharing the future growth of talent transformation in Philippines, the trends in talent management and educational development programs, and highlighting how companies can utilise government initiatives for employees’ benefits.
