IoPP announces Mastermind Group program When confronted with a packaging or professional issue, is it becoming more and more difficult to find like-minded peers who may be faced with similar issues? Where do you go if you need to drill down deep to find specific strategies/applications for your packaging operations? What if you want to concentrate on professional development tools and goals? While IoPP's mission is to help packaging professionals connect with each other, the newly developed IoPP Mastermind Group program gives members the opportunity to address common challenges that other members may be experiencing. Whether concentrated on packaging issues, professional growth or education, IoPP's Mastermind Group program provides a forum for focused and success-minded connections and support from others with similar interests, challenges and goals. This edition of the IoPPupdate gives an overview of this new program. |
|
Find answers to your toughest questions IoPP Mastermind Group members will be able to interact regularly with each other to ask the tough questions, to offer ideas, to receive direct and honest feedback, and to find practical solutions to their current challenges - whether packaging-specific or focused on professional development. Mastermind Group members work together to find strategies and how to implement them immediately. Each Mastermind Group will be given its own online meeting forum located at www.iopp.org, where group members can exchange ideas and host virtual and regular meetings. Of course, Mastermind Groups can meet in person as well! It's up to you! For Mastermind Group details, click here. |

What is the make up of an IoPP Mastermind Group? Once you join or start a Mastermind Group, the group includes members and a group leader. The Mastermind Group is focused on your group's specific wants and needs. The group leader organizes and manages meetings, reports and other details of the group. The leader is the facilitator – the main point of contact for group members and for IoPP. For Mastermind Group composition, click here |
