MAY 2003 Dinner Meeting

Insights from a Senior Operations Exec on

Managing Outsource
Manufacturing Relationships

Presented by Michael J. Dodd
Executive VP, COO, CMO Targus Group International

Mr. Dodd has provided a synopsis of topics he will discuss at the meeting:

Why visibility to off balance sheet liabilities in
Outsource Relationships matter

Why Outsourcing place a premium on leadership in
key operational areas

Designing IT infrastructure and applications to
manage Outsourcing effectively

Getting beyond Slideware—The bursting of the
Tech Bubble clouds the issue, the work of connecting
and collaborating over the extended supply chain is
still unfinished work.

Michael’s experience more than qualifies him to address these topics. He has been the Managing Director of Strategic Commodities for Compaq Computer, as well as their Managing Director of Operations. He also served as Vice President of Operations for Juniper Networks prior to taking on his current responsibilities as Executive Vice President, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Marketing Officer at Targus Group International.

Targus manufactures Portable Computing luggage and accessories locally here in Anaheim. Their quality is such that many of their products are warranted for a lifetime and we’re privileged to have the person who makes it all happen as our speaker this month. So make your reservations early.
