I flew to LA last night to attend the annual conference of the Arthur W. Page Society.  I was invited to join in 2001 when I led global communications at Ford Credit.  To become a member you have to be the chief communications officer at a company with US$2 billion revenues plus.  Once you’re in you’re in for life.

Their annual conference is being held at a swank hotel on the edge of the Pacific Ocean (the other edge - not Sydney but California). 

Tonight’s keynote speaker is Mr. Miles D. White, Chairman of the Board and CEO of Abbott - a global pharmaceutical company.  Click the link above - it’ll take you to Forbes where you’ll see Mr. White’s take-home pay.  He sits on numerous boards and is Chairman of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago. 

I’m sneaking in this PC and will blog during the conference.  Check in in an hour to see what Mr White has to say…
