It was interesting to hear Dr. Romiszoowski speak as he shared his experiences. It was not just a pitch for us to buy a book but a story(s) about how what we are learning is used. Yes he blended in the methodiology of our profession in to his presentation but it was how do we apply it to people. The simple story of how he and his team taught forklift operators how to read a flow chart to create the right mix for steel mill is an example for us to embrace.
The one thing that did resonate with me was his enthusiam for what he does. His parting words "I am looking for the next challenge" not job or task but challenge. This week I have been confronted with some challenges which required some "out of the box" solutions. In his quiet manner, I remembered Dr. Romiszowski's words.

Yes, I must say that his enthusiasm was unmistakable and infectious!
George-
I agree with you that it was great to hear Romi talk about how his book is used rather than just try to pitch it to us for a few more sales. He seems to be an incredible person with a lot of real life experience, something that text books just cant teach alone! Good luck this year!
