The era of the &#8220;reporter&#8221; is over. Today&#8217;s organizations demand <strong>strategic partners<\/strong>, experts who don&#8217;t just move data around, but translate it into actionable foresight. Yet, despite bold corporate visions, we still see a persistent &#8220;execution gap&#8221; between management&#8217;s strategy and day-to-day operations.   <\/p>\n<p><strong>It&#8217;s time to step out of the comfort zone.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>On <strong>May 26<\/strong>, Ljubljana will become the epicentre of the controlling community. The <strong>21st Adriatic Controlling Conference<\/strong> isn&#8217;t just an entry in your calendar; it is a blueprint for professional transformation. We&#8217;ve gathered renowned experts to help you navigate these volatile times through four key pillars:  <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>AI &#038; Digitalization:<\/strong> Moving beyond the hype to automate routine tasks and reclaim time for high-value advisory work.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Strategic Alignment:<\/strong> Ensuring every operational move is a step towards the long-term strategic goal.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Business Agility:<\/strong> Abandoning rigid annual budgets in favor of responsive, real-time planning.<\/li>\n<li><strong>The Psychology of Leadership:<\/strong> Mastering the human element of how data influences behavior and shapes a culture of decisive action.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>The Minds Redefining the Industry<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I am thrilled to announce a speaker lineup that bridges global expertise with local innovation. We&#8217;ll be joined by leaders from global powerhouses such as Christian Brumm (Zalando SE) and Pia Burkarth (ICV Board Member, Veridos Mexico), as well as regional pioneers such as Toma\u017e \u017dele (BTC d.d.), Ale\u0161 \u0160tempihar (Askit), Dejan Kova\u010di\u010d (Peruna), Ale\u0161 Jurak (Resalta), and Eva Esih (PsyBit). <\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t miss our <strong>headliner roundtable<\/strong>. Together with representatives from GV Planet, the Managers&#8217; Association of Slovenia, and leading consultants, we will address a crucial question for the European economy: <strong>How to raise productivity through controlling?<\/strong> <\/p>\n<p><strong>Secure Your Spot<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Join us live in Ljubljana and transition from a data processor to a proactive organizational navigator.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Language barrier?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Whether the speaker is using Slovenian or English, our <strong>on-screen live translations<\/strong> will keep you perfectly in the loop throughout the entire program.<\/p>\n<p>Early Bird pricing is available until April 9, 2026! <strong>And <\/strong>there is<strong> a special price offer for ICV members<\/strong>.
