I have a hell of a good time public speaking (bookings via the blog any time) in fact doing the research and standing up to deliver is a blast in itself.
But its always nice to get some positive feedback. Here's the evaluation from the HIMSS Conference in Vienna last month.
Room for improvemnt, but I'm happy with it, epseically wading in someone else's pool.
I'm as happy to blow my own trumpet as anyone, more than most. So the fact that after delivering a Keynote at the eHealth Forum in Hong Kong two weeks ago on "Deployment,
Access and Infrastructural Preparation of an ICT Response to the
Outbreak of Human Transmission Avian Influenza" its been good to find myself
talking about a couple of roles with the WHO,
fielding invites to deliver the same message to Bernie Huang's students at USC, Mike Popovich's staff at STC and maybe some of ESRI's clients at a couple of conference's coming up.
It was even more gratifying to get this little note from the Forum organisers.
I would also like to let you know that, with an unofficial roadside poll, your presentation is simply voted the most impressive one out of the 2 days. Congratulations. Many people still discuss about your ideas now.
Yep, I'll take that any time. Then, at the end of the email, this;
I am also nominating you as one of the thought leaders speakers in the coming May 2007 Singapore AsiaPac Conference organized by HIMSS of USA. They wanted to start an Asia Pac Chapter of HIMSS next year. I hope they would approach you in due course.
Late 2004 and early 2005 I spent a fair bit of time in the US working with a team at Bearing Point on a supply chain management proposal. The work started out with a focus on the implementation of a near real-time IM system for 15 developing nations, but quickly evolved into a much broader information gathering and analysis to build a strategy for in-country rollouts of supply chain management systems. Huge learning curve; I now know more about supply chains, especially medical ones, than I ever imagined I would need to.
Its nice to know it was appreciated. (Pure bragging below the fold)
