Seminars I conducted recently

Recently, I conducted two seminars: (1)Action Research on August 7 for the Business Administration and Accountancy Students Association (BAASA) students of the Baliuag University, and (2) Seminar on Managing Change on August 8 for the management and employees of Jockers Foods Industries at their Pulilan, Bulacan plant compound.

I conducted Action Research previously for the faculty members and selected students of the College of Business Administration during the summer of 2009. But this time, I modified the contents of the seminar to suit the needs of business practitioners. During the seminar, I said that I had to make-do with modifying the contents of the seminar because I could not find a book on Action Research to be used by business practitioners. But after the seminar, I was able to read an article in the Net about Action Research as applied to businesses. So, it means it can be done as I had always been advocating.

The other seminar, Managing Change, was participated in by about 140 people. It was a good one. This seminar was intended to jump-start the plan of the company to install a 5S Good Housekeeping Program. After this seminar, the company will conduct the 5S Seminar for all its employees.
