The 27th International 20 Keys Conference in Bulgaria was organised by our Bulgarian 20 Keys Partner, Next Consult.
HL-TopMix started introducing 20 Keys® in early 2019 which is a great example for companies who are hesitant about the choice to implement a management improvement system or want to learn how to start a similar process.
