BLOG: back home :-)
Wow, I'm back home after three *very* intensive days in our so-called "Management Forum". As explained on Wednesday, this is our yearly group-wide Executive Managers meeting (Board of Directors and local Executive Board members, special Group functions). Near all the strategic workshops and presentations (some very interesting guest-speakers), these 3 days are a great opportunity for me to discuss with all my internal clients. All in all, I had exactly 15 (!) meetings. And a lot of great contacts with some quite impressive leaders (as usual, not all of our managers are leaders ;-).
Surely my best and more productive Management Forum (it was the third one).
The main strategic topic was ... world ageing. Incredible, it was really fascinating. I can tell you, we all underestimate the impact of demography (ageing!) on our society ... and the business opportunities generated by this development. I will present you a little bit more in the coming days.
In this field, it was interesting to observe how the age distribution looks like for the managers involved in the Management forum:
- 10% under 40
- 50% between 40 and 50
- 40% over 50
I was the only one under 35 (I'm 32) and the youngest, sometimes I feel a little bit alone ;-)
