Arthur Goes To A-Town
// November 17th, 2005 // Art, Music & Poetry, My Personal Journey
For the last week I have been chairing a leadership development conference in the snow covered Harz mountains of Northern Germany.
On Tuesday afternoon I left the mountains and conference upon a train to the Netherlands. I arrived at midnight upon the door step of Mr Brodie J Boland and we regaled the evening with tales of past months discoveries. The following morning I headed to Amsterdam and the final selection interviews for a role in leadership development program design for ABN AMRO. After enjoying a few rounds of interviews and discussions I took a brief amble through the streets of the fair city before returning by the five hour train journey.
As soon as I returned to the snow covered site that evening I saw the conferences delegates shrouded in the warm glow of the official dinner behind tinged glass. In minus five degrees and wearing only a suit, I stood in the falling snow balancing my laptop on my palm and trying to get wireless connection to check my mail. This done I walked into the hall to give my returning address and the first annoucement that I will be spending the next year of my life in Amsterdam working in corporate leadership development; a continuation of my focus on leadership and learning that guided me for the last years- and an important step upon my path towards the university I envision.
