Seminars, social events add value to the Canadian Rental Mart

Suzanne Price.

Jan. 11, 2010 – Two seminars are planned for the Canadian Rental Mart,
taking place March 9 – 10 at the Toronto Congress Centre. The first,
taking place the morning of March 9, will cover the Myers-Briggs Type
Indicator (MBTI) assessment, a questionnaire designed to measure
preferences in how people perceive the world and make decisions. The
session will be lead by Suzanne Price, the program coordinator of
Pre-Media/Media & Communications Fundamentals at Seneca College.

The MBTI is one of the best-known personality assessment tools, and is certainly one of the most widely used. According to some estimates, as many as two million assessments are administered annually.

Suzanne Price is a certified MBTI consultant through Psychometrics Canada, and a firm believer in the idea that someone can use the MBTI to help achieve his or her goals.

“For me, the MBTI was a complete turning point in my life,” says Price. “After a lifelong journey of entrepreneurial development, it was the one step I really needed. Since taking the assessment, I’ve experienced exponential growth in my life.”

The morning of March 10 will feature a seminar lead by Mark Wierda of Dri-Eaz. The topic will be “Profiting in the Restoration Market.”

Attendees at the Canadian Rental Mart will also have an opportunity to partake of a first-class banquet at the International Doubletree Plaza Hotel on the evening of March 9.

After a cocktail reception, attendees will be served a delicious three-course dinner. After dinner there will be awards presented to deserving recipients in the rental industry, and the audience will be entertained by two roving magicians during dinner, and with a stage show after dinner. There will also be numerous draw prizes. 

There will also be a Next Gen Reception at the hotel in the afternoon by invitation only. The rental industry has a substantial proportion of family owned and operated businesses, and the Next Gen Reception is where the up and coming stars of the industry meet and exchange ideas.

This is a great chance for you to meet many experienced rental veterans in one place and enjoy a great social gathering. Attendance at the banquet or seminar is by pre-registration only.
