STA HOSTS SECOND EXECUTIVE ROUNDTABLE WITH HP CEO, MARK HURD
Solutions provider STA kicks off their 2010 Strategies in Leadership series by bringing customers and partners together for an all-access Executive Retreat, April 22.
CENTENNIAL, CO, February 9, 2010 – Tustin, CA-based STA, Systems Technology Associates, Inc. – an HP PartnerONE Solution Elite and Consolidated Infrastructure Elite technology partner – once again will host an executive-level seminar with the keynote event being an informal discussion with HP Chairman and CEO, Mark Hurd. The event offers C-level attendees an opportunity to ask questions and receive Hurd’s perspective on local and global business issues. This invite-only event will take place at the Montage, Laguna Beach on April 22nd.
The first event, held at The J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles in 2007, was a resounding success. It was informative and engaging for the 25 key STA customers in attendance, as well as the executives from HP and STA. For the attendees, it was an optimum chance to gain top-level perspective on the issues and opportunities in the IT realm.
“This type of access enables an important link that has been lacking in the past among our customers in the mid-market business community,” said Simon Palmer, President of STA. “To be able to facilitate an event that provides two-way access for our mid-market customers and the executive leadership at HP is a benefit to us all and we’re looking forward to hosting this event again.”
“Top-level executive interaction with channel partners and customers is key to our mutual success,” said Tom LaRocca, acting vice president and general manager, Americas Solution Partners Organization, HP. “These meetings lead to improved understanding and better strategic alignment, which ultimately results in new market opportunities.”
This Executive Roundtable event is part of STA’s Strategies in Leadership Program, a series of executive development and outreach programs that according to Palmer “is our way of contributing to our community, both clients and partners. It’s an on-going Leadership Development program to provide an opportunity for executives to enhance their skills in this area and ensure clarity for their vision.”
In addition to Hurd, STA has also added Vance Caesar, Ph.D. to the line-up for this event. “Vance is a premier leadership coach and mentor to many blue-chip companies and his contribution to this event will center on Leadership Strategies for the New Decade,” added Palmer.
