PointsNorth Search Group Newest 2017 SHOT Show Executive Management Seminar Sponsor

NEWTOWN, Conn.—The National Shooting Sports Foundation^® (NSSF^®), the firearms industry’s trade association, is pleased to announce that PointsNorth Search Group has agreed to sponsor SHOT Show’s newest educational forum, the Executive Management Seminar. Designed as the premier educational forum for rising managerial and executive-level professionals, this all-new forum will take place the day before the show opens, Monday, January 16, from 9:45 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.

Based in Crosslake, Minnesota, PointsNorth Search Group specializes in recruiting talented professionals and placing them at leading companies in the outdoor recreation industry.  Owned and managed by Ross Gilsrud, an experienced outdoor industry sales and marketing professional, PointsNorth specifically addresses the staffing needs of hunting, shooting sports and fishing manufacturers.

“To successfully manage a company, regardless of its size, you need the right employees, those who understand where the business is going, the role their positions play in that and who have a passion for their work,” said Jim Curcuruto, NSSF Director, Industry Research & Analysis. “This sponsorship by PointsNorth, whose expertise lies in helping our industry members find exactly that kind of talent, is just one more reason we think the new Executive Management Seminar will be very well-received.”

“PointsNorth Search Group is pleased to be a sponsor of this leadership seminar.  We believe strongly in the benefit of continuing education in this rapidly shifting outdoor marketplace, and this educational forum will offer participants new ideas, techniques and tools to increase their organization’s competitive edge,” said Gilsrud.

During the 2017 SHOT Show Executive Management Seminar, attendees will hear from top experts discussing the hottest management techniques and business practices taking place today and covering trending topics such as voice of the customer, multiple generation management, keys to peak performance and segment-specific marketing techniques that will allow you to better hone your business action plans. Morning coffee and a buffet lunch will be provided during this full-day seminar.
