Dinner Meeting: Thursday, June 21st

At ASTD We Are
Grillin and Chillin!



Presented by:

     Brenda Kraner
     Center for Performance
     Excellence
     Wright State University

Come join us for our June 21st dinner meeting where our caterer will be breaking out the grill. Menu includes burgers, sausages, and chicken as well as traditional picnic fare. Dress in your favorite "island attire" and enjoy a casual evening of food, fun, networking and Pickles. Pickles? We can't have a picnic without pickles.

Pickles are the "extra mile" we go for our customers. As trainers we teach customer service to both our internal and external clients. But what do WE do for our customers?? Come ready to identify your pickles and learn what your colleagues are giving away to go the “extra mile.”

You will:

  • Have a great evening of good food, fellowship and fun!
  • Informal networking opportunities
  • Gain customer service tips that we as trainers can use
  • Re-discover how fun creating and giving Pickles can really be!
  • Identify one really great program you can steal and use on your own!
