………….

What you just watched gives you some idea of my life with my employer SAS – now approaching almost 200 cities visited since 2005 (and 41 in 2008). Am I a wanderer or an adventurer? No, I am simply a careful observer of what I see, and then I intensely focus on trying to make sense of what I learn.

So, what am I? Like a bee in the big garden of the world, I’m a pollinator. I pick up what I see in one place and drop it along with my prior insights from elsewhere into another place – to people. That is, I share my observations with others. I share them in seminars, in meetings with customers and consulting partners of SAS, with media journalists, and with my co-workers. And I’m about to share an observation with you.

As I write this blog, I am flying from Budapest, Romania to Istanbul, Turkey. I am reflecting on my past 72 hours of interacting with Romanian business and government executives and managers.
