Manage for Profit Seminar

Manage_for_Profit_Seminar

After a period of rapid growth driven by high inflation levels and insatiable consumer spending, we are entering a new situation: demand is coming down. Consumers are experiencing the effects of decreased purchasing power, while companies cut investments as they are confronted with interest rates that have not been witnessed for a long time. As a result, companies can no longer rely on revenue growth as driver for growing profits, but will have to increase their profitability within the boundaries of constant or decreasing revenues.

The key strategic question: How to grow profit in times of stable revenues?

Register for this seminar to get inspired by leading economists, leaders from industry as well as growth experts and obtain new, insightful, and actionable insights to address this question. Moreover, you will have the opportunity to exchange best practices, network and discuss with industry peers.

Why this program is relevant for you
  • Mark Billige (CEO and board member of Simon-Kucher) will share his view on how business leaders can drive profit growth in the coming years.
  • Maarten van der Lei (SVP Pricing & Revenue management at Air France - KLM) will share firsthand experience and learnings on how to optimize profit in an industry characterized by constant fluctuations in demand.
  • Our Simon-Kucher specialists host industry-specific tracks to directly address your specific growth challenges and share best practices specific to your industry.
  • Leaders from across industries gather and allow you to exchange perspectives, discuss opportunities and best practices with your peers.
Who should attend

This event is designed for business leaders in a general management-, commercial- or financial role, looking for a roadmap, inspiration, and best practices to sustained profit.
