Good Luck Rictus,

Take ALL the free advice you can get. Theres a load of help out there for young business-people.
Remember, think twice when offered advice with a price!

I can write management bollox all day. I find talking it off the cuff much harder. My ideal interview would be to know the questions beforehand, write a report and present it on powerpoint - I can do that - I'm not very good at just winging it!!

Sounds like you did pretty well - you were definitely well-prepared!

I can get cheaper courses through work as well but we have to wait to see if there are any places left after all the general public have enrolled.. the cheek, eh? :rotfl:

And I bet you are more than capable of presenting horizon-scanning solutions in a single-gateway, work-focused environment;)

well, when going forward, I like to fully utilise idea showers, ensure that all touch base offline whilst knowing I have them all in my radar. I mean, you can't turn a tanker around with a speed boat change. It's all about forward planning and avoiding low hanging fruit.

you too. Keep optimistic that things will feed through the sales and delivery pipeline and remember that we've got our fingers down the throat of the organisation of that nodule.
