At the ISA Wireless Summit last week, notwithstanding all the other fine presentations, including an excellent one by Honeywell's Harsh Chitale, the cream was the speech given by John Berra, CEO of Emerson Process Management. You can read my contemporaneous notes on the blog from last week but I asked John if he would give me a "canonical version" of his talk. He was kind enough, with the help of his staff, to re-create what he said. I'm posting it on ControlGlobal.com because I think he's right: http://www.controlglobal.com/articles/2007/232.html I don't always agree with John, he doesn't always agree with me. But when he's right, I want to say it... and when he is spectacularly right, I want to print it.
