Making It in Milwaukee — and Out WisOwners.com May 30, 2008 Topic

Tuesday, May 20th, 2008

Join Wisconsin Business Owners Network Group at the Best Western Midway at Maxwell’s Noon on Friday May 30, 2008.

A unique Milwaukee citizen, Richard Thieme is a noted business consultant, author, media commentator and speaker. His topic is Making It In Milwaukee - And Out.

Study after study details the deficits of our beloved home town. We are in the last quadrant of almost every measure of success and viability.

Yet on we go - sort of.

A prominent business leader said to Richard Longworth at a meeting of the GMC the other day when Longworth spoke about the Midwest and its problem — “My friends are making more money than ever. What’s the problem?”

Well, there are problems, there are deficits in leadership, cultural bias, economic disadvantages but … still, a lot of us stay.

What are the keys to success in Milwaukee? What are the options? What can we control and what can’t we control?

Richard Thieme has been speaking and writing for fourteen years with Milwaukee as a base. He has spoken recently in Sydney and Brisbane, Auckland and Wellington NZ, Tel Aviv, Dublin and the Hague — and his Islands in the Clickstream column was sent to readers in more than sixty countries.

During our brief time together, Richard will note some challenges and opportunities, respond to your concerns, and make our lunch together a happy occasion.
