February 16
FlashPoint is presenting a special program for fellow 2011 Indiana Companies to Watch winners and alumni. Successfully managing talent in a growing organization involves identifying the competencies employees need in order to be successful, hiring candidates who fit that talent profile, developing your people so they're equipped to carry out your vision, and ensuring that team and individual goals are properly aligned to your strategic objectives. FlashPoint principal and cofounder Andrea Cranfill will equip attendees with the insight and tools necessary to continue helping their companies grow. If your company is one of the Companies to Watch, you can RSVP for the event here.

Award winners will be announced during a ceremony on February 29, 2012, at the Indiana Roof Ballroom in downtown Indianapolis.
