Bruce Kendall

Bruce Kendall came as a guest speaker for our class. He proved to be a very though provoking speaker. I found it especially interesting the topic of the importance of a location for a business. Not only do you need to consider the tax's, cost and rental of the location, but also the availability of good dependable employees to hire. In reference to Tacoma the ladder has been a major downfall were Seattle with the university of Washington has had much success in the department. With the introduction of UWT this has changed and made the Tacoma area a much more competitive market for new businesses to look into.
