  . . . . . MINE  EXPO  2008  EVENT  REVIEW . . . . .



BOOTH 6058: I was happy to see old friends and meet new acquaintances from all over the world at MINEXPO. There was a lot of interest in management development programs at this  show,  more than in past shows. Some of you took advantage of the opportunity to get an autographed copy of the mining edition of my new book "Building An Opportunity Culture", which was previewed at the show. Brian Micke from Australia is awaiting his signed copy (below right). 


My booth contained examples of visuals that I use to improve results and sustain change for my clients. If you missed me at the show, contact me now to talk about opportunities to maximize equipment performance, minimize costs, build management skills or sustain change at your operations.

To get a copy of my book, go to Products/Books on this website to place your order. 


     






OPPORTUNITY:
An odorless invisible element defined as a favorable set of circumstances in business. The only element with an infinite atomic number and weight.
When discovered and captured, it reacts with improvement programs and corporate cultures to produce a desirable green substance found in financial institutions.
