    Hola Miguel,

    Si, espero poder ir a SCIP Roma pero no lo sabré seguro hasta estar más cerca de esa fecha. Ojalá podamos conocernos allí. Siento no poder contestarte en Portugués pero solo ser decir (no escribir) obrigada :)

    Hasta pronto!
    Eliana.

    Hey, Miguel. Thanks for the kind words about the podcast. Absolutely I intend to record new episodes very soon. I've been swamped with some projects that have kept me from diving back in. If you have any topics you would like to hear covered let me know.

    Thanks again!

    Hi August,
    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,
    Miguel

    Após 20 anos de jogar a bossa nova e samba na baixo, eu devo poder falar um pouco do português, não?

    Bom Dia Miguel,

    I am unsure if I'll make this Friday now since it's my last day with my Mom and it's always crazed! My husband's art show is that evening in Georgetown. BTW will you be at SCIP in DC? I will be at the Aurora Bash on Thursday night. Cheers! Ellen

    Olá Ellen,
    Hope all went well with your last day with your Mom, as well as your husband show.
    I still do not know about WDC (SCIP) and only closer to the dates I will have a 'clear' picture of my availability.
    Hope you can make next Friday. This past meeting was very good.
    Keep in touch.
    Cheers,
    Miguel

    Muito obrigada Miguel!
    Te pido mil disculpas, hace mucho tiempo que no contacto contigo. Estoy embarcada en la preparación de proyectos a largo plazo y en la crianza, así que no tengo mucho tiempo. Te mando un email privado en cuanto tenga un ratito sobre proyectos de trabajo.
    Espero que tú y tu familia estéis bien. Un abrazo,
    Pepi
