PACE 2006 featured 386 booths, 225 exhibiting companies and attracted approximately 4,200 attendees to the Tampa Convention Center in Tampa, FL from Jan. 29-Feb. 1.
The show opened full of adrenaline as Richard Teerlink, PACE 2006 keynote speaker and former Harley-Davidson CEO, rode into the keynote session on a roaring Harley-Davidson motorcycle.
People were the topic of Teerlink's address because he believes that they "are an organization's only sustainable competitive advantage."
Teerlink helped revitalize a struggling Harley-Davidson company in the early 1980's through a back-to-basics, common-sense, people-centered approach, which resulted in building a brand that provided customers with what Teerlink called an emotional lifestyle experience.
