I found it of very high value and had some great discussions with attendees. The talk by the subject matter experts was also quite relevant to some of the challenges we face in our business and will be looking at their offerings. The one suggestion for improvement would be to provide guidance sooner on the expected duration of the event as I would have liked to have stayed longer if I had known to plan more time as I ended up with a conflicting appointment so had to leave earlier than I wanted after dinner."

Being invited to an event of this nature is truly an honor, and I appreciate the opportunity to be part of it. The success of the GEN flagship event in Salzburg this year has undoubtedly showcased the caliber and professionalism of your organization. It is evident that GEN is dedicated to bringing together top executives and fostering meaningful connections in the business world. I am excited to learn about the expansion of the Executive Dinner series to cities such as Milan, Vienna, Budapest, and Madrid. It is clear that GEN recognizes the growing market potential and the increasing demand from executives in these regions. The chance to attend an Executive Dinner in Madrid is particularly significant for me. Despite not being able to attend previous editions due to logistical constraints, I am thrilled to have the opportunity to be part of this event in a location that is more accessible for me. Once again, I sincerely appreciate the invitation extended to me."

Changepoint’s presentation was not only interesting, but at exactly the right level to guide the ensuing discussion. I also believe GEN did a great job sourcing the attendee list – we have all been involved, or are involved with Business Transformation projects and it was very interesting to hear others perspectives. All in all, I enjoyed the evening, and hopefully it was beneficial for all. I would definitely join another event, if invited, and would love to join the Services Excellence dinner in April, if the topic is a match."
