BACKGROUND

I know what some of the locals would say. But, on an overall "helicopter view", it is irrelevant.

ABSTRACT

Mixing change in politics and business is always a risky affair- and I am not referring to the tulip craze. Just read the enclosed bibliography. I might be wrong- but changing a culture requires a long-term view, that sometimes requires more real-politik and less short-term results.]]> http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2009/11/01/agb2009-bridges/feed/ 0 http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2009/10/05/interesting-times/ http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2009/10/05/interesting-times/#comments Mon, 05 Oct 2009 10:47:26 +0000 AGB http://localhost/wordpresssites/blog/?p=954 http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2009/10/05/interesting-times/feed/ 0 http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2009/10/01/agb2009-a-balancing-act/ http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2009/10/01/agb2009-a-balancing-act/#comments Thu, 01 Oct 2009 08:00:17 +0000 GettingAroundTheWorld.Net http://localhost/wordpresssites/blog/?p=920 the presentation) AGB2009: a balancing act

BACKGROUND

In my business experience from late 1980s, I almost never saw a coherent organization- it is more a work-in-progress.

ABSTRACT

Few decades ago, the European Parliament started being directly elected by citizens.

Accordingly, a sequence of treaties and agreement gradually strengthened the European institutions.

BIBLIOGRAPHY

This bibliography is slightly more "technical"- nothing is worse that an uninformed discussion on the future of political or business organizations]]> http://www.robertolofaro.com/blog/2009/10/01/agb2009-a-balancing-act/feed/ 0
