Theme 2: Leading from the Front – Zeitgeist Europe 2010

Over the past year, business leaders have endured one of the most challenging economic climates in decades. In this session we hear from those who have emerged from the crisis stronger than ever. What can we learn from their leadership in developing strategies to thrive during difficult times? What has been the impact on their approaches to innovation, product life-cycles and brand management? Do changes represent a long-term shift or will things eventually return to normal?

    They should talk about how the people of New Orleans who lost their livelihoods are given an amount determined by BP and if they don’t take it they can suffer and take the chance on hiring an outside attny like the 911 families and waiting at least two years for settlement.

    Meanwhile they tried to buy off LSU professors at 100 to 300 dollars per hour hiring whole groups while the common people suffer.

    On an aside, La only get 10% of oil revenues; other states get much more.

    Exploiters.

    How about powering an economy by something renewable and free?

    And while we’re at it, we should rid ourselves of the obsolete, folkway socio-economic system in place and put forth one where we don’t steal resources, profit from war, and starve people to death.

    LOL. Someone once told me that $60 was pretty low to start from once working online. He didn’t know that the technique explained at ez-casino(dot)com does not involve any of my effort?
