Of the six networks he ‘directs’, perhaps the most interesting in light of tonight’s discussion is the group of professionals who meet three times a year called the <a href="http://www.conferenceboard.ca/LPIC/" rel="nofollow">Leaders Panel on Innovation-based Commerce</a> . While he notes that there is a lot of interesting research generated by the Conference Board and quite a bit will be ‘cranked out’ during the year, his great enthusiasm is for the high quality of these professionals and most important, the refreshing high level of leadership: people “who really know what they are doing and want to do more”.
