Although getting up at 4:00 am to catch a flight usually requires large amounts of caffeine, I was energetic and high on anticipation the October morning that I got up to head off to Oxford in the early dawn. I was heading to Meltwater’s annual management training seminar, held this year at the Saïd Business School, University of Oxford. Being the nerd that I am, I was looking forward to the lectures, to exploring the libraries and to getting a feel for the atmosphere in the famous town that inspired authors such as J.R.R.
