Well, am glad u were amidst great business gurus and I hope u had a lot of 'take-aways' frm the seminar. <BR/><BR/>About Michael Proter, I must say (from what I have heard & read) that he is one hellova guru and I read somewhere that the world's most famous business-school professor is fed up with CEOs who claim that the world changes too fast for their companies to have a long-term strategy. If you want to make a difference as a leader, you've got to make time for strategy, which I believe is SO DAMN RIGHT & TRUE! <BR/><BR/>Of course, I do agree that “Plans are nothing, Planning is everything” but the whole premise about planning stems from STRATEGY (a long term plan of action designed to achieve a particular goal) and organizations inorder to cope up with change in this competitive world would have to have & implement crystal clear strategies to keep moving forward.Sriramhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13457084527356067297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9533912.post-1131701214070101022005-11-11T09:26:00.000+00:002005-11-11T09:26:00.000+00:00Hi RockyYep ... disappopinted about Tom but that ...Hi Rocky<BR/><BR/>Yep ... disappopinted about Tom but that is life.<BR/><BR/>Good news is Tom is back in UK in May 2006 and I will be seeing him then - God willing :-)Trevor Gayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01148705981847576706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9533912.post-1131623843213065132005-11-10T11:57:00.000+00:002005-11-10T11:57:00.000+00:00It sounds like it was a great event.
