Print Print this Article | Send to Colleague

Plans are underway for an outstanding Commissioners Seminar, June 3-5 at the Seattle Marriott Waterfront in Seattle. There is no better program for a thorough examination of the role of governing board members, a great source of information for both new and experienced commissioners. The seminar will focus on the commissioner’s role in an evolving public port environment faced with challenging economic conditions.

New sessions this year will address:

  • Growing Exports and Promoting Economic Development
  • How Can the Port Industry Cope? An Opportunity/Need for Greater Port Collaboration
  • Trading Patterns – Successfully Dealing with Change
  • Port and Local Communities – the Social License to Operate

 

Others include: "Issues of Most Relevance to Public Port Governing Boards," "The Uncertain Political Landscape – Navigating Port Priorities Through Rough Waters," "Current Legal and Liability Issues for Ports and You, the Governing Board Member," and "Board Management Relations." Interactive discussions of established best practices provide an exceptional educational experience for port commissioners and port executives alike.
