Babette Bensoussan replied to Matthias Pfister's discussion Is there a need for (additional) CI training seminars in APAC? in the group Asia-Pacific CI
"HI Matt Interested in your post.  I have found CI to be a hot topic but a misunderstood one in the APAC region.  It has definitely greater understanding in the USA and in Europe as there is a depth of literature and case studies across…"

Hi Babette,

Yes, I am intending to get to Aussie at some stage next year for a holiday, but could easily work that around an Art of Analysis III or Wargaming course! There's also a potential big CI project on the boil tho, and I think it may be beneficial if I pop over and have a chat with you if it goes ahead too.

Yes, I'd love to join the Women in CI group, so have signed up.

Thanks,

Cathy

Why politics deserves greater mindshare of CI in India

Politics affects business in very real ways, and this is becoming increasingly apparent in India. In recent weeks, corporations have been screaming hoarse about the impact of poor governance on business.
