Mission: Possible

Here is a collection of awful marketing conference themes I have attended over the years:

"Mission: Possible"
"You've Got The Power"
"Take Charge"
"Moving On Up"
"We are the Champions"

And of course these themes are matched to carefully selected, inspiring music. Cue Fatboy Slim and "Right Here Right Now".

These conferences are supposed to inspire a degree of loyalty to work your guts out 70 hours a week without complaint. Or flash enough of a carrot to make you want to stay until the next junket so you can clean out the minibar several nights in a row.

Instead, they make you ponder why you never looked deeper into the trades for a career. Less bullshit, more money.
