At all. You deserve all the kind words for your brilliant work.
I do have some topics that I would like to suugest.
Among them let me share a couple:
#1 Challenges to implement CI functions in SME's
#2 Sales Intelligence - how to leverage it and how to support your sales team
#3 - CI - Is it the same all over the world? How different? How similar?
Hope they are of interest to you.
All the best,
