WESSELS SHERMAN'S POWER SEMINAR CONTINUES TO BE A HUGE SUCCESS! |
 | | April 27, 2012 Seminar with over 100 attendees at the Minneapolis Marriott City Center Hotel. |
| |
For its fourth year in a row, Wessels Sherman continues to educate a large audience on the latest developments in labor and employment law at it's Annual Power Seminar. This year, the seminar was held at the Marriott City Center in Downtown Minneapolis, drawing business representatives from all over the midwest. Each year, WS attorneys work as a team to produce this all-day, fast-paced seminar geared toward employers to help them navigate the ever changing legal landscape.
James Sherman, President of the firm and Managing Shareholder of the Minneapolis office, acted as M.C. and conducted the events of the day with a sincere presence, providing descriptive and interesting introductory stories for each speaker. Additionally, humor and gravity throughout the day, including our two guest speakers, resulted in a lively atmosphere that attendees continually enjoy.

Most of our firm's newsletters/Client Alerts are premised on bringing out certain salient points of law for your consideration. This article is going to be a little different in that it is the aim of the author to raise a very important issue for your consideration that may provide you with the means to avoid/lessen legal complications.

This is commonly referred to as marketing, but very few businesses do what the author believes should be "internal marketing."
Who are the individuals that make your business a success? Is it just the business owner or the executive group? If any reader of this article truly believes that, I think you are in for a rude awakening.
