People from every continent, every level of the management ladder and every age group, from sixteen to sixty. So what would you choose? What would be your first wish?ĭuring the past year, I have asked thousands of people this question during my presentations. Just imagine it! You find your lamp, you give it a quick rub and a genie appears with the wonderful news that you have three wishes. Other than that, you are free to fulfil any of the many dreams you might have, up to a maximum of three. And you cannot ask the genie to make someone fall in love with you or to bring someone back from the dead. You cannot ask for more than three wishes. What would you do if you had the good fortune to find a lamp like that? Before you let your enthusiasm run away with you, there are one or two rules you will need to observe. A genie appears from the lamp and promises to fulfil any three wishes that Aladdin might have. Aladdin finds a dirty old lamp and gives it a polish.

If you haven’t seen it, the story is fairly easy to summarise. As a big Disney fan, I must confess that Aladdin is one of my favourite films. I assume that most of you will know the story of Aladdin and his magic lamp.
