Testimonial from a Network Member:

"Our membership into the World Class Strategies Network at East Carolina University, has been worth many times the membership fee.  From round table discussions of problems common to all members, to problems specific to a few, we have received valuable advice.  Over the past few years numerous members of our management staff have attended seminars sponsored by the WCSN and found what works and what doesn’t.    The plant tours have been especially meaningful to our production and engineering staff as they have been able to see first hand how others operate in the global market and what they do to stay ahead of their competition.  We strongly recommend the WCSN to area manufacturers and businesses, and encourage them to join us.”
L. Bruce Parson, Plant Manager, Kinston Neuse Corporation, Kinston, NC
