Excelente homenagem, Ricardo! O Mr. Gregory foi fundamental para o sucesso do PMI no mundo todo! Tive o privilégio de assistir a algumas das aberturas de congressos feitas por ele, em países diferentes, e nenhuma apresentação foi similar à outra, exceto pela energia do Mr. Gregory que parece inesgotável.
Suas palestras sempre foram muito inspiradoras, e de cada palestra eu saía mais energizado para trabalhar em meus projetos.
Tive também a sorte de cruzar com ele em Washington durante o último congresso e pude agradecê-lo pessoalmente por todas essas experiências e pelo seu trabalho frente ao PMI!
Imagino a sua satisfação por ter a oportunidade de ter trabalhado próximo a ele nesses últimos anos, pois ele é uma daquelas pessoas que realmente fazem a diferença!
Abraço e muito sucesso em 2011!
Andre Choma
