At the end of the year we held our second yearly assembly of UPKS (Association of Management Consultants of Serbia). We had a quest from England and ICMCI (www.icmci.org) Mr. Brian Ing, former president of the ICMCI, came to Serbia to assess our organization as the final step in the process of accepting us as a full member of this international institution.

Together with Hristov Consulting we have performed customer service training for KOGO Lounge Bar. What a perfect place for business training, next to Grand Casino Belgrade at Hotel Jugoslavia, on the Danube river. It is not only a great place for partying, good food and night life, but for much more.
We plan to organize public (open) business training events here. So far most of the business public training in Serbia has been organized inside, in dark and plain spaces. We believe training location must be stimulative for mind, body and spirit. Learning doesn’t have to be boring to be successful.
Look how great is to learn, practice, play, interact with colleagues and have fan doing it.
