Day 12 (3/29) Makassar (Tranportation Agency) - Hotel Day 4


Yep . . . another day at the hotel.  At least one of our lead Transportation Agency Department heads came by to talk and review our recommendations and plans for next weeks final presentation.  Interestingly, we have two session with the client, one is a training session on "leading change" and the other was our analysis finding and recommendations.  The client told us today, the "leading change" presentation is the more important of the two presentations.  So I'm going to conduct a two hour training session for about 20 employee's and the Agency Chief next Tuesday.  The idea is, our recommendations are already understood by them, but if they can affect "change", none of the recommendations will happen.  I thought that was great insight by our client.  Sorry, no pictures from today except these random ones.  #ibmcsc
