CBI Conference

Yesterday I attended the CBI conference where it was very refreshing to see that in a straw poll about 25% of the audience indicated that their companies were likely to hire new staff in the coming year. It was even more interesting that in another straw poll nobody indicated that they thought the much talked about "double dip" recession would materialise.

It was also very interesting to hear the former Canadian Prime Minister, Paul Martin talking about how Canada dealt with their budget deficit in 1995.

Maybe it's time the doom and gloom merchants kept quiet and let those who want to change things for the better get on with it - and maybe there's a lesson or two there for people who claim that agile can't work in their environment because "we're special".
