101201 - Follow up ref SDS 2 0000, ref SDS 3 0000.
101202 -
101203 -     Visited the exhibits; mainly concentrated on management training
101204 -     organizations to suggest they consider providing tools that
101205 -     empower their clients to implement the ideas they are training.

101209 -
101210 - Met Joel Koppleman with Primavera.  Advised of letter ref DIP 1 0000,
101211 - issued at ref SDS 1 8539.
101212 -
101213 -     Joel did not recall seeing my letter.  He said his people
101214 -     "protect" him from a lot the details, so he can focus on important
101215 -     issues, the bigger picture.
101216 -
101217 -         [On 950412 Joel attributed failure of an important project to
101218 -         managers who "do not tell the truth," ref SDS 5 3920]
101219 -
101220 -     He is considering development of a new strategic management tool
101221 -     for projects.  In our brief discussion, I did not really follow
101222 -     his concept; he noted it is still formulating in his mind.
101223 -     ..
101224 -     He took an SDS brochure and will consider the prospects of
101225 -     marketing SDS with Primavera to provide macro and micro automated
101226 -     management support.
101227 -
101228 -         [On 941018 Joel had not read the paper. ref SDS 4 0000]

101230 -         [On 950412 Joel seems to have read paper. ref SDS 6 2079]
101231 -
101232 -     Joel said Arnie Greenfield is no longer with Primavera.  This
101233 -     explains in part why progress has been slow presenting ideas at
101234 -     Primavera.

101236 -     He indicated he will try to visit my presentation on POIMS
101237 -     tomorrow.
