Sailing is all about Teamwork. Last week Neil was an invited guest speaker at Space Matrix management conference in Singapore. His topic was the power of teamwork, using Sailing as the example. Sailing 101 is the title - what a buzz. The event was held at One Degree 15 Marina Club, our old home in Singapore.
While introducing sailing skills he challenged the audience with knot tying skills - and the results were hilarious. How many architects does it take to tie a bowline ? Actually quite a few got it right !
Of course our cruising anecdotes became vivid examples of teamwork in action, and the one hour presentation concluded with a marina tour. The audience were able to inspect the classic cruising boat SV Sunrise (thanks to Robert Goh) and the hot shot racer Yoo Zoo (thanks Ludde Ingvalls) before admiring motor yacht MV Blue Steel (thanks Rod Steel). 25 people from Singapore, India, Thailand and Dubai had a hell of a time, and the party after the conference wasn't bad either. Need a team oriented motivational talk ? Call us !
