Outline

This Breakfast Briefing will deal with the Internet and its current
uses, its strengths and weaknesses as they relate to managers.

It will focus on the Internet as a tool, not as an end in itself.
This briefing will also address how the Internet is changing the way
individuals relate to organisations.

This straight forward, jargon-free briefing will serve as a
counterpoint to the bewildering volume of mass media hype
surrounding the Internet today.

Special Guest

Duncan Kerr, Minister for Justice, will be the special guest at the
briefing and will discuss some Government initiatives using the
Internet.
