A day with Michael Porter

Romania’s biggest business event of the year was “Strategy and Leadership“, with professor Michel Porter, held yesterday in Bucharest. If you don’t know who Michel E. Porter is don’t despair, neither did I till three days ago. Fortunately I’m interested in bringing up my business skills so I got the change to attend the event.

First, before Michael Porter’s presentation, some local speakers started the day, sharing with us they’re experience in the entrepreneurial field. Some were ok, others boring, but that’s not the point. The point is that I was impressed by the variety of people present there, from CEOs to entry level managers, from financial to clothing sector. Everyone paid 600 Euros to learn strategy from a two hours presentation of word’s number one business thinker: Michael Porter.

In the next few posts I’ll tell you all about setting up a strategy for your business and how to position and differentiate yourself from the crowd. I’m pretty eager to see your reaction and your thoughts for your experience, so stay tuned.
