The Star Phoenix provides great coverage of Dr. Lowell Catlett's keynote talk to the Canadian Farm Business Management Council; they recently hosted their annual Managing Excellence in Agriculture conference in Saskatoon. "Catlett does an excellent job of portraying the generational shift in attitudes. Our parents, the parents of baby boomers, typically led a life with few frills. Most were concerned with just putting food on the table and keeping the family clothed and sheltered. They knew all about tough times and making do. As baby boomers, we've lived in much more affluent times and therefore our demands and expectations are far different. Rather than just nutritious food for sustenance, there's demand for organic, free range, slow food, food with a smaller carbon footprint and food that can address health problems."

Twitter was abuzz with praise for Dr. Lowell Catlett's keynote talk last week in Nashville, TN, at the Business Outlook Summit, sponsored by the Nashville Area Chamber of Commerce. Optimistic in tone, Dr. Catlett's presentation was taped and you can watch a short clip of it on YouTube.
Catlett said he’s not making light of anyone’s struggles. But Catlett said some good economic news has been ignored in favor of the bad. He also said comparisons to the Great Depression go overboard, calling them “an insult to my father’s generation that went through” it.
