The Creative Edge
We asked the keynoters at this year's EBBF Annual Conference for their reactions to the title of this year's event: The New Paradigm of Work - From Survival To Fulfillment.
Here we share the fascinating comments from Friday morning's keynote David Patterson founder and CEO of a financial institution that currently has $9 billion assets under management (Northwater Capital Management Inc.).
He started asking himself the first basic question: "why would a business man who has made a career in the adjoining fields of derivatives, hedge funds and private equity – the very fields often most associated with piranha-like behaviour" want to converse with people who put deep values at the centre of their business lives?

The second keynoter that shared her reactions to the EBBF Annual Conference title is Dorothy Marcic a true maverick with a career spanning over 900 workshops with Fortune 500 companies to being the author of best selling books with innovative titles such as Managing With the Wisdom of Love. And now the second of Friday's keynoters has embarked in a new adventure successfully taking a - musical - to three continents where she powerfully shares the progress that women have achieved in bringing about the equal opportunities and standing that society can benefit so much from.
