The traditional Management Congress is considered one of the most important and high-profile business meetings of managers in Slovenia, where participants discuss current business and social topics.

Since Slovenia fell by four places in the global competitiveness ranking, prepared every year by the Swiss institute IMD, and infamously ranked 46th among 67 countries, this year's congress will be marked by a discussion on competitiveness, where we will look for solutions:

How to turn the curve of competitiveness upwards and how to radically raise the standard of living in Slovenia with a clear plan and integration and cooperation.
How to bridge the national divide, reminiscent of the senseless extremes of history and the story of Romeo and Juliet.
How should the state ensure an ambitious vision and strategy for the development of the state and the economy and enable a stable, predictable and competitive business environment.

And how to achieve a breakthrough and the much-needed rise and development? The main guest of this year's congress will speak about it. We will be joined by Tanja Schindler, an internationally recognized expert in empowering individuals and organizations to take back control of their future.
