Bruce Kendell

Bruce Kendell was in our class today to give a presentation. His focus was on business in and around the tacoma area. Having worked with many companies in and around the area to create a more receptive place for them to stay and work. This has led him to have a lot of different experience. One of the items that he talked about was business plans. He talked about how the business plan is an important piece for a company. And that it should not stay the same for too long. A business plan should be changed and updated as the company grows and as the world changes as well. This will allow the business plan to be as accurate as possible.

His knowledge of local companies and what was going on around the sound was just impressive. Having worked with a lot of the companies he knows what is going on. Having helped companies expand to other facilities and to bring in other companies he has a lot of knowledge of the goings on around town. It was just interesting to hear how much the area is changing, and how much the companies are changing as well. He was a very good speaker, he was one of those people that could probably talk for hours and not get bored. Not that i would mind, it was a very entertaining presentation.
