How can you, nerd, ubergeek or opensource developer sell your skill's and knowledge to organisations who have no knowledge of opensource? A trip to the reality of pointy-haired bosses, their worries and drives. Forget MS vs Linux, KDE vs Gnome or the beauty of IPv6, managers want tools that make's stuff work faster, cheaper, better and so on.The workshop gives a short intro to synchronise our jargon and then quickly degenerates into a brainstorm based on cases from the life of the partipants. The business management perspective is brought to bear by a senior, pointy haired, tie-wearing, IT-manager.
