yeah
00:00:01
e. i almost uh i feel like maybe running five days 'cause i feel like
00:00:08
i've been sprinting uh that's what we call it the business pacing yourself
00:00:12
yeah you run as fast as you can until you actually fall over and
00:00:15
i think we'll leave that everyday um i've been told many times uh
00:00:22
of the last few days that we'll be really proud that we've had such a record breaking attended this congress
00:00:28
uh and i've inevitably replied that that's actually not the point
00:00:33
uh ultimately is not how many people come it's hell great city is and how
00:00:39
successful it is and what great outcomes are created for each person individually
00:00:45
uh and i hope that you feel that that's been the focus about team
00:00:49
trying to make it really special for each one of you
00:00:53
um my second if your congress uh in nineteen ninety
00:00:58
as young delegate in adelaide australia uh is still the very best
00:01:04
a congress that high at ever tended as a delegate
00:01:08
uh and to me the feeling that i had at that meeting is what i try keeping my head
00:01:15
when i think about what sort of experience we want to create for you the delegates today
00:01:20
uh the challenge of cool sees how why take that individual experience and get my team to understand that as well
00:01:26
so we create all kinds all delicate experience profiles and charts to try and
00:01:33
judge whether each thing we add is going to help create an opportunity for all
00:01:38
of you to feel the way i did back in nineteen ninety if
00:01:42
you wanna know about that by the way does need to buy new b. only get me started not tool for about three hours about it
00:01:48
when do that now you'll be pleased in a a and very important it's yeah a big
00:01:54
changes that the associations dissociation community out friends
00:01:59
you run the big scientific medical trade
00:02:01
um societal advancement associations to become much more a part of
00:02:07
that community uh they've helped to shape the program
00:02:11
uh they have contributed in all kinds of ways to the content
00:02:16
uh on panels making suggestions and quite quite most ridiculous lead to me
00:02:22
they even insisted on pain of refusing to come here
00:02:26
unless they were given the team drink at night
00:02:31
okay so we thank you want with building something for the long term
00:02:34
here um i can see more more associations coming to this event
00:02:38
uh we're gonna get the more more involved uh i want to thank all of the commanders who have
00:02:44
three to be associations here with respect and
00:02:47
as partners and friends not as clients
00:02:51
uh we need to move away from the supply acolyte relationship and this congress is the
00:02:56
place where we can actually move forward in create a stronger association meetings well
00:03:03
uh it's been special compress for a charitable donations and c. s. r.
00:03:08
a more charitable causes involved across the range but uh some
00:03:13
men the driven like uh the gift of love
00:03:16
oh thank you for all the donations the tool is the gives a his just a quick picture of uh some of the boxes
00:03:23
uh again amazingly to me as a person who thinks the joking is a form of torture
00:03:29
uh a hundred and forty of you brave to the uh the chill
00:03:32
all of a a prob morning to go running for charity
00:03:36
amazing the biggest uh a collaborative efforts uh that we've had a about over eleven thousand euros has been
00:03:43
raised directly for a a range of what he calls is which we wish we communicated earlier
00:03:50
uh we said that uh this week is about
00:03:53
building bridges uh between cultures on between ideas
00:03:58
uh bridges movies from ignorance to knowledge uh and i really hope that each views bill your
00:04:04
own personal bridges but the bridges incomplete into you
00:04:09
go home uh and you take action
00:04:12
you actually change the way that you work you communicate your teams uh i
00:04:18
you think about what you've done and you also make plans to invest in your own knowledge in your own advancement
00:04:25
please share with your teams and very very important very practical request for what would you please
00:04:30
when the questionnaire for this compress comes out uh please delete enormously fill
00:04:36
it in a a with a lot of the what because
00:04:38
that's the most important mass feedback mechanism that we have to try and make improvements for the future
00:04:45
uh on average we get a fifty percent response rate to a
00:04:49
questionnaire that takes about twenty minutes to fill improperly which is
00:04:52
virtually unprecedented in our presence so let's see if we can actually be
00:04:56
that percentage this time please look up that until it's in
00:05:00
uh i wanted such a challenge to you might have some really amazing inspiring conversations with individuals throughout the
00:05:06
last five five days sometimes later that night or should i say merely moving than is healthy
00:05:13
oh and one of those conversations is all some those concessions of struck me really up forcefully um
00:05:20
we have a record number here and many of them are europeans you do not go to the uh compress when it's outside europe
00:05:27
uh and so i i pose this question why is it that today when
00:05:31
we talk about the power of meetings and how important i ought that
00:05:36
if your spending a week at a well designed meeting uh and that
00:05:40
meetings where you gonna beat your suppliers your clients your potential partners
00:05:46
uh where you're gonna hear solutions to the very real concrete problems you face your business
00:05:53
uh and when you get inspiration for re imagining the future your business why is it
00:05:59
but we still have to face the arguments that um
00:06:03
we have to justify spending this week why this should if we've done now work properly
00:06:09
as delegate it should be the most valuable weaken the whole year of business so let's all try and
00:06:15
get those documents out the media to our bosses to us stakeholders
00:06:20
so that they really understand why you give up a few days and come here this is not a holiday
00:06:24
this is not just hanging around having fun we want to make it fun but it's about business
00:06:29
it's about personal advancement is about understanding of the market work so please join in that
00:06:33
challenge let's try and change attitudes fall why you should come to these meetings
00:06:38
uh just got finished there are gonna be lots of official functions like try one
00:06:42
get in the weather's but i i've got a couple person ones uh
00:06:46
my team in many associations beast off open associations of that association
00:06:52
uh in my uh in my experience my team i believe uh part of the meeting not serving the community
00:06:58
uh and i think that uh one from job and a meter especially you is i'm bleep i
00:07:05
um what's quite remarkable is that three people who would actually left take up for other jobs
00:07:12
all insisted and volunteered to come over and work with us because they just
00:07:15
didn't want to miss the opportunity to participate in this this congress
00:07:19
i'm just blown away by that uh and to wrap up my thank you i just want to thank space my wife who
00:07:26

00:16:31
that were were competing here licensee sydney
00:16:34
flanders meeting convention centre and work and shop logic um
00:16:39
and all fantastic very different programs i know you must've had
00:16:45
a difficult time it worked yeah who the winners
00:16:47
were before we do that i just wanna pay tribute to the team of best marketing award um
00:16:54
a cost when is to comprise the panel of judges and
00:16:58
the inimitable irrepressible and sadly no longer here at
00:17:02
the like in the you had to rush off to catch a flight back home who does that
00:17:07
but um believable job of bringing this together like you live in the plenary sessions
00:17:12
that we have a big round of applause for the judges will that for
00:17:21
and i'm wondering whether we do we have to short listed a chance that's up
00:17:24
on the next slide or be straight with no okay no more to
00:17:29
i've done enough that logistics which died uh you want to know just one thing that
00:17:34
you are the winner of the twenty seventeen it could best marketing what it's
00:17:40
flanders by half
00:18:00
oh
00:18:11
i
00:18:23
oh
00:18:26
but thank you to all the file as per mike you is such a great highlight isn't like on a rich
00:18:31
will highlight the congress no one else does anything quite like that so now a new in another new initiative
00:18:39
uh and for this one i'd like to ask representative uh agnes like a
00:18:43
line from the the sponsors meets high want to come up with
00:18:47
uh come up come up a please address thank you uh this is called the future belongs to us
00:18:52
um use you might notice it in the program notes i know that the session room was pretty full
00:18:57
um it's typical that when an organisation wants to run programs and education for young
00:19:03
people that normally hire a bunch of grey haired old people like me
00:19:06
to design it so we thought that this year we do something slightly different in that she asked the people who
00:19:12
well that's the programs aimed at to come up with it so we ran a competition
00:19:18
asking a young people at the single people all pairs of
00:19:21
people to design a session the content the format
00:19:26
also the speakers what sort of cool tech but they still would
00:19:29
really appeal to millennial delegates okay we gave them training
00:19:34
with pitch experts on how you do that pitching and they
00:19:38
literally just ran a session before the closing plenary
00:19:42
so i actually don't know who the winner is at the moment but when uh we'll get
00:19:47
free registration to you could congress in dubai and we would
00:19:51
give them a budget of two thousand euros on
00:19:54
top of everything else we know we provide the sessions
00:19:57
in order to uh in order to let them
00:20:03
three i get that reality that they would pitching today so
00:20:07
no pressure tool that uh so from the right uh_huh
00:20:12
got through the final and pitch to that is if we have
00:20:16
a winner and that when it is sue wagner how
00:20:23
could i ask you to come up or say graduated and pose for a photo
00:20:32

and the good thing is that i now have twenty minutes to talk records
00:32:25
the session only twelve and one o'clock and i'm the last item on the program so
00:32:29
when i told me you're only seven minutes no no not get so correct
00:32:34
i'm going to share with your some of my experiences of the past thirty years
00:32:40
uh uh and i'm going to share some thoughts that i have about the it was the large maybe for years to come
00:32:48
and um i think that i should start with a saying some things because
00:32:55
it is fantastic i don't know what happened i don't know what i've done to ruin this recognition
00:33:01
it is a fantastic recognition it's the best that you can do for it i think
00:33:06
and i should get the more schuster word and that meant what i room and
00:33:10
they bloom started with it or nineteen eighty seven and opens the shame
00:33:14
you but i've started so they is that anytime you want to shop awards
00:33:18
we can talk about that's uh but congratulations with the fantastic whatever
00:33:23
and i'm very happy of course with this or not every membership records at the end of your career
00:33:31
and i think it's more or less than of market here i don't draw a line
00:33:35
then uh then think of us maybe you you plan to
00:33:39
stay home now and not complete acquaintances and what
00:33:42
um but maybe that's not such a good idea to become one i remember you don't have to pay any more to participate
00:33:49
technical conference and and i bought shares fine nationality my passport
00:33:53
so ah promise of the archdiocese something for free or
00:33:58
difficult to say no i'm i'm dutch but i'm a ever come by george because a quarter of my
00:34:05
life now i live in a few so i want to thank the people that make it possible
00:34:11
to get this what it's first of course the board of directors of of the car
00:34:16
the and the critical people monks you will say you are getting bribed them
00:34:23
which is partly true yeah because one member of the of the board committee in two thousand one
00:34:30
and two thousand to have to find a such as uh for come holding a c. o.
00:34:37
and we found marking should show he definitely had no objections against me
00:34:42
uh becoming on every now and then in two thousand six each
00:34:47
i i'm convinced me now to become become and they had no african piece yours
00:34:54
the as members of it and you know this is something few solos heritage
00:35:00
by the way when you can hold the speaker conferences than that dick ideas become a sort
00:35:05
of knew something of the you you know you have before christ and after class
00:35:11
so you have also before about looking after our thirteenth before before
00:35:15
six which means before nina and after two thousand six um
00:35:20
and anything people who has a kind of a difference of opinion with
00:35:25
one of the biggest often was that the you talking about when the berlin wall so
00:35:33
and uh and she possible things that was in nineteen ninety and i knew that happens when we had our confronting
00:35:40
title which i know was nineteen eighty nine so i want that it they shouldn't you cut down here
00:35:47
anyway i'd i think the what of of the wreckage itself thirty thirty much for this moment
00:35:52
i really appreciate it although i still don't know exactly what i also want to thank
00:35:57
the the right open to them i think that although by the person that it's on at the moment but
00:36:03
i joined ally in nineteen eighty nineteen eighty seven and became responsible for the light conditions and
00:36:09
so on and in hospice your department and that was my first uh my first thirty
00:36:16
uh and and that i always supported the current over since it's not i spent a lot of time
00:36:22
well on the cash for babies or some some function um i want to think the
00:36:27
size of the tourism and the national convention though because the last couple of years
00:36:32
as a member of the marketing advisory board i could continue to tend to ignore conferences
00:36:38
after my uh at the time and from the right group can can become
00:36:44
and i also martin one to think my wife was this the day of thinking welsh uh yeah
00:36:51
because i mean yeah the to to the half of twenty ten set medic if
00:36:57
you're not going to thing behind it that i'm using capetown that's horrible
00:37:01
and she forceful has come to be the case so she should no no no you must continue to go to the current
00:37:08
just continue to do you cover up if you can and and work in confronting should so
00:37:12
i have decided that i yeah it was gone to work study show should your coffee
00:37:18
and i was going to play a little bit more golf from twenty ten
00:37:22
minutes and that's now seven years ago and both have not happened
00:37:26
yet and that's tangible and yeah i think so overview for thank you
00:37:29
for that maybe next year prof in think includes markov capacity with
00:37:36
uh it's interesting to see how we can just go in the room with the we had two hundred and fifty dollar
00:37:42
gift i think maybe to ring that even the on that conference in the capital region in nineteen eighty seven
00:37:50
and that number increase over the years and now over thirteen and
00:37:54
that is that this spectacular sake it requires of course
00:37:58
also new initiatives to get the maximum article was that first
00:38:02
movement with the things we were sitting around the table
00:38:06
with forty people maybe uh over in the in the category of the news
00:38:11
i begin to use its order to each other little simple you
00:38:14
you knew everybody and um well a couple of years later
00:38:20
and it became yeah good cheer of to get it even
00:38:23
use and consequently also board member of of the time
00:38:28
um the number had increased to maybe on that so and and
00:38:33
they're still the whole friends and you you ever worry personally
00:38:38
actually i'm nice and ignored um when did you get congress to placing capetown in two thousand
00:38:43
four i just had stepped down from the position as the chair of the category
00:38:50
then he had he had taken over the having new my with which
00:38:54
i have a little bit notification of uh having a sweet tooth
00:39:00
uh so bad that went on holding forgot to buy chocolates and biscuits for what meeting
00:39:08
i left a meeting and went out to buy the muscles it's all been on call at a board meeting
00:39:14
but when the typical which started in uh in capetown levy harry
00:39:19
had sent execute you know i wanted that remembers and said
00:39:24
come to visit working captain he take all your local this gets to get on with give that to do
00:39:30
so it's fun to see i got fifty or sixty because of this this and that whole yeah i enjoyed biscuits from all over the whole
00:39:37
those are the nice things that do commonsense but now i was here in the venue that even
00:39:42
on sunday and the two hundred and fifty thing you representatives at least in that room
00:39:48
and maybe i was born to really because imagine two hundred and fifty but that's of
00:39:51
this gets that would have been that would've been a lot nicer is there
00:39:58
my my but the reason i can i can think of why
00:40:04
i have received this contest with the word of this
00:40:09
after long thinking with i've done all the things that all of you do but one
00:40:13
thing i think i'm the only one the only one in this audience that often
00:40:18
and that is i've been chairman of the house committee of into all this
00:40:23
twice and nobody he he yeah we were lucky enough to house without congress
00:40:30
they are have been a prosecution must be made absolutely
00:40:35
no abuse of the people um the yeah
00:40:40
i have determined to commemorate the seventeen i immediately became share of the novels committee and this is
00:40:47
what a little to do with the the the thirties told us we wanted them to them
00:40:51
and it worked those pictures and which which which is that i thought that i
00:40:57
was appointed as managing director of the taped on the new peyton convention centre
00:41:03
and then to capetown and and some of my first meeting and as you can with the
00:41:08
yeah i thought yeah this is not going to that so few people was a publishing company
00:41:13
and with four people around the table that was the effect that committee of that
00:41:17
um now the out of useful so so we've made some progress
00:41:22
um can be much better but we should have wanted data
00:41:26
conversion captain because uh looms from them some experience
00:41:29
with the hosting the congressman's then you're on the map than people know about hip hop about two
00:41:34
the interesting to uh to do that so i'm almost all the fourth in
00:41:38
a thin it yeah i made a lot of people become member
00:41:42
and uh together we didn't problem of sponsoring and up
00:41:46
to today everything checked to see still benefiting
00:41:50
from the prophets that we made in two thousand for example if they have an education fund and i
00:41:56
still use that maybe cutting people's fantastic so depend on the map in two thousand and four
00:42:04
and there i was in the meantime most of the board member of the
00:42:09
current anymore the so far more start talking now about what data more
00:42:13
his name's for me and for the companies that were to um i think the she cut off being of
00:42:23
yep that engine output part of it that is what you put into it
00:42:28
uh i always have believed that they had maybe too many trade organisations and
00:42:34
the in our industry and i said to my production them so the motion that captain
00:42:41
the it's not a good idea if you shut yourself saying if you want
00:42:46
to be active in all these organisations you must make a change them
00:42:50
uh we did it again she then the according to the movie another coded was active in m. p. r. a.
00:42:58
another quality activity that i apple and i choose eating when i don't think
00:43:02
that that little speaker has been very very good for me very very
00:43:06
good for them summarise what would make sense to most with that five
00:43:10
minutes of i've used and for the should yes she did so
00:43:15
and and i think that that's suggested the to the to on
00:43:21
your input does not come quickly and automatically you have
00:43:25
to build it up and it takes some time last will take thirty years you can do the bit nicer stop
00:43:39
oh
00:43:41
so so you must give us an exact time uh and and how do you do that was a bit overwhelming
00:43:48
but actually not because believe if you if you think that the the few sitting
00:43:53
here in this audience that at least your neighbour right or your neighbour left
00:43:58
this the first time at indy it's it's more than three hundred and fifty the new people in the room and that
00:44:05
really makes it necessary to make an effort to get to know each other and what helped me thirty much this
00:44:12
not shying away from tasks that are out there for them to
00:44:15
you to become a member of working group should start start
00:44:19
with the simple things don't to me the big things and but in the categories and using also insist i hear
00:44:26
uh depression chip people talking about the situation in the but talking about other before you don't know
00:44:32
and i believe that nobody's from creating it and company for good show marks to do that
00:44:38
you don't want to be the to have the captivity automatically the volunteer for committee the
00:44:44
jane just looking for people that that uh helping with that the venue comparisons that
00:44:51
uh and i was involved with that and it is to hold it in your pricing comparison
00:44:57
but that's pollution come to them also not recorded differently yeah and uh but it is
00:45:02
very interesting work to to work and also for them to spruce do that
00:45:07
and and talk about for movies and i move a little bit to what's
00:45:11
possible hard in our with bush ominous with them as i told you
00:45:16
um first of all you all come into the thick of some because of affluent enough at the meeting on uh on
00:45:22
sunday that jessica's bidding again forty to twenty twenty two or so therefore don't if it got yeah yeah yeah yeah
00:45:34
um yeah
00:45:35
because that's such a beautiful continent but we have a few few problem should i should
00:45:40
two thousand six is to just a huge uh that uh nina came on board
00:45:46
the nineteen eighty nine year of government told i hope to
00:45:49
this conference will be remembered value as the you don't
00:45:53
move gravest of the i'm i'm i'm sure but for
00:45:56
some overview as far as i'm concerned possible thing
00:46:00
i'm kind of all happened today or is happening as we speak you there now
00:46:06
forming fish necessary for efficient one of those projects that i heard about this week and i would like to embrace the project
00:46:13
is the project too good to go if one of the two trade
00:46:17
associations that is present to your approach liquor and said now listen
00:46:23
we can do better than we do at the moment with powerful for sure push one foot
00:46:28
by the way are also would like to to complement the local
00:46:32
organisation that question plastic and particular fruit beverage i figure i've
00:46:36
never heard such good foot and efforts to your because all the great big mama's too but but it is uh
00:46:44
but that is um a lot of food left over in the kitchen and out to the kitchen and
00:46:48
what do you do with another venue managers of amongst us know what what the problem is
00:46:53
then i was managing the local merchant if the the the shape which foot bends
00:47:00
to the far much fish football pitch at least it was better than nothing
00:47:05
uh and then the european community so that no no no no that's not correct anymore you can't
00:47:11
do this whole sufficient you have to distill it so we started to the story foot
00:47:16
and then you live in which aims to them the you can maybe have peace with that but of
00:47:21
course you cannot have peace with that when you live in the future so when i moved to
00:47:24
kate only two thousand one of the shuttle happy that there was an organisation captain cold
00:47:29
news when we moved and they collected from the whole tailspin
00:47:34
from the convention centre a good in the morning
00:47:37
the fruit that had not left the kitchen that that was the condition the multi thirteen and the
00:47:43
distributed that much charities of homeless people another show much better than this one foot and you
00:47:49
and now this organisation does everything comes to the to assist continually few what is happening with tools
00:47:56
auntie create a little bit of of working group of the can you
00:48:00
make the logistics of fortune five maybe better maybe share our knowledge
00:48:06
collaborative professionalism maybe share knowledge and um we make
00:48:12
the the the logistics of food distribution like the
00:48:16
automobile industry we make sure that uh
00:48:20
that the fruit is just in time at the right place not too much not little just
00:48:24
in time this enough and then maybe we can do better things with the surplus of
00:48:30
and another thing but we could do is maybe approach as like
00:48:33
a european community and community and say this rule of
00:48:37
or for for that account redistribute ship the fruit that's inaccessible
00:48:42
that that is all that should change with that
00:48:44
modern technology to preserve for that that should be able to change very much would've made this one one more one more
00:48:53
so i'm asking for volunteers across the categories compressed through the space flight from
00:49:01
oh i know one last thing that's close to my heart that's the chef directorship
00:49:06
change and it also has to do with africa place can talk about it
00:49:24
thank you for an difficult that's got so much passion i think we're not gonna get rid of the iranian because there's a
00:49:31
really fantastic projects i don't think today we have enough time
00:49:35
for that but i really and supports and endorse that
00:49:38
and really at c. d.'s that i got away with my chocolates not sell gave me last
00:49:43
night intact away from to excite dick thank you we can i switch yonder rename that
00:49:48
i and for those weird sat and sun at things to think about and some projects you work is not done
00:49:54
so the script say so it to extend some of my time banana now it because he's
00:49:58
a d. f. range but it seems that i'm supposed to do some closing remarks and
00:50:03
i wanted to just give you an leave us on a and
00:50:06
thoughts before why handed over to team added by and
00:50:11
and upon reflection thinking of this congress uh not time to get it for me
00:50:15
it really started when we had our board meeting on friday and saturday
00:50:20
and for those of you that now we have to start a days of meetings and we've asked if we just have some
00:50:25
actual lights in the room enough space for all of us to
00:50:28
to feel and comfortable and and not confine fifty days
00:50:32
and and this time we decided that in state i'm assisting in the boardroom
00:50:37
style seating that we we got him a chase around into a circle
00:50:41
to laugh applies engagements and fruitful discussions of you re insanity
00:50:46
changing the way we we think and do things
00:50:49
and i think some of that would mean is called the circle of life all the circular to ask
00:50:54
and and i just thought that that's not just quite appropriate with
00:50:57
some and closing remarks because it's any thinness sons advance circles
00:51:02
the bed planning and hosting it between the savings in congress even prong sickle is almost complete
