NCI Summit Week 2012 Breakout Sessions

Outside The Box: Brainstorming Work Groups

After the great feedback NCI received from attendees who attended special roundtable discussions at last October's Business Leadership Conference, we decided to introduce "Outside The Box: Brainstorming Work Group" sessions this year. You will have an opportunity to select two of the four following Work Groups to participate in, one on Tuesday and one on Wednesday:

Management & Leadership
Sales & Service Management
Marketing
Implementing Performance-Based Technical Processes

When you register for the Summit, you will be asked for your two Work Group preferences so we can make sure you get the most from this cutting-edge brainstorming approach

Winning the Home Performance Game

The Home Performance market is evolving at warp speed. As you prepare to enter this fast-changing landscape, you'll need to understand what it takes to achieve success as you'll likely encounter many hidden obstacles and traps. Learn how one pro is positioning his company to win at the Home Performance Game through a strategy designed to increase company profitability and stability.

Home Performance and HVAC Performance - Point and Counterpoint

Do you know how to make sure your home performance and HVAC system renovations result in the safest and most efficient operation for your customers? For years rebate and weatherization programs have focused on making buildings extremely efficient and air tight while neglecting the combustion performance of fuel fired equipment located in these buildings. Is combustion performance simply an afterthought or an opportunity for real improvement inside the home performance industry? Are you making changes in a building that can have unintended consequences for the occupants?

Watch David Richardson and Jim Davis go head to head challenging each other on issues involving safety, efficiency and operation when dealing with home performance and HVAC issues. They might just need a referee.

CommonCents™ Software: A Hole in One for Your Company

Take a look at ESI's CommonCents™ Software, and learn how to integrate ComfortMaxx™ and HomeMaxx™ testing into your business model. You'll also get an overview of the newest version 2.0 software features from ESI cofounder Tim Hanes. Be sure to bring your questions for this interactive session.

The Short Game with Long-Lasting Impact: Implementing and Selling Performance Maintenance Agreements

A Performance Tune-up is at the core of high performance maintenance agreements. Let NCI's David Holt walk you through the elements of a performance tune-up, how to integrate them into your maintenance agreements, and how to teach your customers about the value, peace of mind and potential energy savings a Performance Maintenance Agreement provides.

Team-Building - Scramble for the Pin

We've all heard it -- there is no "I" in Team. But do you have what it takes to make team–building more than a one-time event, or a played out cliché? Let NCI's John Garofalo take you through some team–building exercises that are sure to get your employees' attention. John will share some of the secrets to the long-term success you'll experience by 'pumping' up your team and maintaining a high level of cooperation and participation.

Better than a Caddy: Doing Business with an iPad

Contractors must learn to make technology work for them. In this interactive session, Bob Wilkins will present winning tips for using iPads in your company as a way to collect information and differentiate yourself during sales calls. He'll also share how his company uses NCI's sales and testing tools in PDF format, and how he has improved hand-offs and communications between departments with the use of this state-of-the-art technology.

The quicker you register, the more you save! You can save up to $100 per attendee!
