Got this in the mail last week....

Dear David,

I would like to take the opportunity to invite you to the IAOP meeting in Guatemala next month, that you are already well aware of.

Your contribution as a speaker/panelist on this event would be much appreciated. I am envisioning a presentation titled something like:
"Central America: How it all got started - Plus, the Costa Rican Story"

It would be really great to hear your stories about setting up the Acer call center in the 80s in Costa Rica, and just your viewpoint of the last 20, then 10, then 5, and perhaps just the last 2 years of what's been going on in all the countries and the region as a whole. Your bird's eye view of it all is something that very few of the conference attendees has, and I think they will benefit plenty from hearing about it.

We can only offer that you come pro bono, but we hope that it is an opportunity that leads to other opportunities for you. We are hoping to have another very succesful chapter meeting like the innagural one in Managua that you attended.

in hopes of your response,

Estuardo

PS: Chris Disher, the Chair of our Central America Chapter, is copied on this email.
