@AXUG PRIOR WORK International Executive Roundtable

@AXUG Discussion regarding the purpose and nature of the group:  Constructive Advocacy  Peer to Peer knowledge sharing : Large Enterprises; International Implementation  Unique connection with MSFT for the unique situations that the companies in this group encounter  Be careful to not put individual needs above group needs. But, the group can help draw attention to individual problems to be solved.  Unique situations occur for International Enterprises that Microsoft can consider if they know about it.  Don't join if you only want to push your individual agendas.  The group can put some ground rules in place to ensure the collective voice is heard and not individual agendas.  Be careful that this doesn't become about issues. Needs to be more "picture painting" of what the Enterprise model should look like.  How MSFT relates to the International Enterprise space.

@AXUG Discussion regarding the group’s exclusive membership criteria:  Tim identifies that the CIO Summit is a tangible group in place, but has not been applicable to the Dynamics Enterprises.  Experience shows that the more precise the conversation, the better the conversation goes with Microsoft  MBUF is founded under similar objectives and focused in Germany. Martin thinks several CIOs/Execs will be interested in joining on this Global group.  Consensus is to keep it AX only, particularly in the beginning.

@AXUG Discussion regarding getting started:  Web meetings are OK to get most done.  Could start with forming a platform of 5-10 topics and begin conversations among the group and then to MSFT  Martin believes that this group can channel the international needs of the MBUF group.  Frank agrees that local groups can input topics of discussion  Adding some critical mass (maybe target 12??) with some balanced representation from around NA and Europe  Suggestion to add a MSFT Liaison ("godfather") as a fixed ex-officio member of the group to make the cooperation more efficient. Must be the right person from MSFT  MBUF meeting in November in Germany. Martin will represent this group's objectives and bring back topics at hand in Germany - which may give us more concrete topics to consider in the AXUG International Executive Roundtable
