After four successful years, the Fordyce Forum has established itself as one of the most important dates on the calendars of the world’s leading third-party recruiters. Simply put, there is no finer event that caters to the industry’s best and most successful recruiting professionals. If you want to take your search business to the next level, the Fordyce Forum conference is where you need to be!

Get ready, recruiters… we’re heading back to Vegas! We will be back once again at the beautiful M Resort Spa and Casino for the fifth annual Fordyce Forum on June 1-3, 2011.

As Paul Hawkinson, editor emeritus of The Fordyce Letter once wrote:

Our business is unique. I know of no other business where the players start with nothing to sell, no one to sell it to, and wind up at the end with a five-figure fee for doing it.

Led by our Conference Chair, Jenifer Lambert, the conference will feature stellar industry leaders and speakers – both established and on the rise – as well as a few special surprises for attendees. Check out this video for some of our Conference Chair’s thoughts on the upcoming Fordyce Forum:

Here’s what some of the attendees from the 2010 Fordyce Forum had to say:

I attended the first Fordyce Forum in New Orleans three years ago and it left a lasting impression on me and my business…This year’s speakers, as expected, were phenomenal. I have come to expect a certain level of training and insight when I attend a Fordyce event and this year didn’t disappoint. I’ll be back next year.
- Tarin Yankovich, Founder & President, KTP Executive Search Group, Inc.

I enjoyed the conference, it was my first. It was very nice to get to interact with other recruiters since we are all so very compartmentalized in this industry.
- Derek Pyper, Partner, Proffinity Partners

This was my first forum…I very much enjoyed the sessions I attended and found the networking opportunities to be excellent. As a sole practitioner, this was invaluable as the big downside to my business model is the relative isolation. I will likely attend future forums.
- Rose Bingham, President, Synergy Insurance Consulting, Inc.

Got lots from the networking sessions. Enjoyed, worth every mile from the UK!
- Georgie Takher, Manager, Muse

The Fordyce Forum is proudly brought to you by the publishers of The Fordyce Letter. Many recruiters have shared stories about how The Fordyce Letter taught them the ropes of recruiting, and how it continues to provide instrumental guidance not only in building their own careers but also in helping them to build successful businesses and recruiting legacies.

We are thrilled to be celebrating 40 years of publication this year. 2011 is a milestone year for us, and as such, we have some exciting things planned for the fifth annual Fordyce Forum in June! The Fordyce community is indeed a family and we intend to celebrate this and incorporate it into the conference.

Read the agenda, review the speakers, and prepare to fill your brains and your notepads with tips and success principles shared by some of the best and brightest minds in the business – who also happen to be your peers and friends. We look forward to having you join us as we celebrate, learn, and share together.
