*脖子的照片拍得越来越好了！

大学同学在做人力资源的培训项目，问我要不要见见在学界拥有世界声誉的Williom J. Rothwell教授。我说好，不知者无畏，抱着学习的态度嘛，我在浦东香格里拉的套房里和他见了面。

白天他已经上了8个小时的课，还是显得十分精神。做了人力资源的研究这么久，每谈到一个问题，他就滔滔不绝，倒是我有些困倦，从上午忙到晚上，一直在说英语，对我来说，说英语不知不觉就说累了。更何况，我要不可避免地同他谈到专业问题。

还好，人力资源并没有我想得那么枯燥，况且在一个长者的面前，我总是很放松。

我们谈到美国人力资源的现状，中美两国人力资源体系的对比，还有常规的人力资源问题。虽说是专业的内容，但还是我的能力理解范围内的学科，毕竟不是什么高精尖的技术问题。

谈话很愉快，找时间和大家详细分享谈话内容。


It was an enlightening talk. Pro. Williom J. Rothwell’s erudition and humor impressed me a lot. I’m looking forward to seeing him soon.
