Enjoyed day one of the conference. At these things it really isn't so much about the speakers it is the people who are attending. Had some great side discussions that carried on back to the dorm. I was so overstimulated with ideas I could not sleep. Always great catching up with a group like the All Black staff that are here. Coyle gave a good presentation, not great. Basically rehashed his book. Looking forward to catching up with some old friends today. I am sure many posts will be sawned from the ideas generated from the discussions at this conference. Overall impression from Day #1 is that the concept of planning is still pretty foreign in US, but getting better.
