After Joe Piot brought in McKinsey & Co. to aid performance of the company, numbers of "Strategic Planning Meeting" were held. We can always tell the meeting was such from the paper poster on the wall, favorite of McKinsey. In this early 1980 R&D planning meeting you could see that this was an internatinal meeting. Besides Simon Chu, Jim Shelnut, Alan Wilkes, Gene Golda, John Loftus, Jen-chi Huang, Ralph Gigi, Raj Doshi, Gordon Jenkins, Paul Jargiello, Bill Rowe, Delos Bown, Peg Otis, there are Peter Herting and Evangelos Karanastasis from Germany, Steve Brown and Tom Heckels from England, Masatsugu Tanimoto from DIC Japan.
