- I thought the event was excellent. As a business we have just
initiated a project to define an EAF. This conference has helped
enormously in arming me with the necessary ammunition to sell the
benefits of EA to the business. It did well in putting EA in context
- however I believe there are outstanding issues with regards to
ROI - is the market & senior management ready for initiatives
/ philosophies that do not have hard benefits? I thought the speakers
were excellent - and it was content rich almost to the point of overload!
