On 28 March one more book talk, this time for AmCham (American Chamber of Commerce in China). I was pretty nervous about that talk, found some new tips on how to improve a public talk using a PPT and as a result locked myself up and changed very much my original presentation.

I was the also battling a bug in Microsoft Office for MAC 2011: the slideshow in PowerPoint does not work since recent updates (14.3.2 is the latest): in the middle of the presentation the keyboard freezes, not exactly pleasant when your audience looks at you hitting all keys in desperation and nothing happens. Fortunately I had figured out the track pad still works, but not handy… Found out everybody has the same problem and there is no real solution except to wait that MS comes up with a new update. Problem was solved by buying Keynote… Just around 20 USD to get rid of the pesky PPT stuff. Works great and allows smooth import and export of PPT.
Finally it went all well it seems at AmCham. See the pics, courtesy of AmCham.

The other seminar, one of the regular ones, was for UMKC (University of Missouri at Kansa City, Henry W. Bloch School of Management). A pretty engaged and enthusiastic group of EMBA students. See the pic at Peninsula Hotel.
