Those who have been to Fordyce Forum in the past know that there is no finer event that caters to the industry’s best and most successful recruiting professionals. If you want to keep growing your search business, the Fordyce Forum conference is where you need to be!
We know your time is valuable and we strive to bring you the best information from top recruiters and leaders in the third party recruiting space. We also know that change is important for you to take your business from good to great, and we are doing things a little differently this year to help you with this. Fordyce Forum 2012 will truly be a “working conference” at which recruiters and recruiting firm owners will participate in activities and workshops to develop skills and thought processes to bring back to work and immediately implement. And you’ll be networking directly with your peers and colleagues during these workshops.
In addition to a new conference format, we are also in a new location! Recruiters, we welcome you to join us for the sixth annual Fordyce Forum, to be held in Dallas, TX June 7-8, 2012 at the Hotel Palomar.
As our former editor Amybeth Hale once said:
Recruiting is the kind of career that can be as big (or as small) as you want to make it. It’s not the kind of job you can major in at college — it’s either in you, or it isn’t. You are a student of the game – you pursue your own education, you supply your own resources, you discipline yourself to get things done each and every day.
We are pleased to bring you a working conference that will help you further your education, your career, and your success as a recruiter!
Here’s what some of the attendees from the 2011 Fordyce Forum had to say:
“Well worth the time. Learned new ways of doing things from some very capable and productive people.” - Herbert Hess, President, Hess Associates
“After [the 2010] Fordyce Forum I took a laundry list of items to implement when I got home; I was able to execute on almost all of them. This year as I listened to the speakers telling us what we should do to be successful, I was nodding my head in agreement as so many of them were implemented over the previous twelve months; it was nice to see validation and that I was on track with what I had learned as a result of being a part of the Fordyce Forum and affiliated with its members.” - Tarin Yankovich, Founder & President, KTP Executive Search Group, Inc.
“It was a great conference — good people, well organized, and great energy.” - Karen Russo, President, IIPE Executive Research
“First year and I’m very new to this industry; learned some great things. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!” - Rob Tiff, Account Executive, ERC
“I’m glad I went. I wasn’t sure what to expect, and I was leaving new hires back in the office as well as a full desk of activity so I wasn’t sure I wanted to go. As I was leaving…I was really glad that I went. I enjoyed it and found it helpful and definitely felt like I want to be there next year!” - Aaron Mills, Denver Manager, EdgeLink
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.
Stay tuned as we develop the agenda and add new 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 network, learn, and share together at our Working Conference.
