Best Office Committees

“We serve as a platform for exchanging best practices in managing an organization.”

The purpose of committees is helping member companies to improve their organizational capabilities, serving as a resource for member companies with respect to business & finance, HR, IT & telco, marketing & communications or real estate related issues and help member companies maximize their membership and market its benefits to clients.

Committees are composed of experts in each respective area, and are charged with preparing activities and publications that will help companies enhance their intelligence, refine capabilities and improve their practices through the sharing of information, ideas and best practices various member companies have.
