The industry's most qualified individual - with some qualifications in the playground


Just who is the industry's most qualified individual, we ask, following receipt of a dramatic press release faxed through to CJ. In awed tones, it announces that Michael Bardsley, managing director of Roland Bardsley, 'has become a fellow of the Institute of Management.' It continued, just so the message was clearly rammed home: 'This achievment demonstrates Mr Bardsley's commitment and ability to help lead the company through to the next century.' Quite so.

And should we still be in any doubt of Mr Bardsley's intellectual stature, it adds: 'Michael's other academic and professional qualifications include' (note that 'include' - clearly there are far too many to be listed in toto): Master of Science (helpfully abbreviated to MSc), Bachelor of Education (BEd), Member of the Chartered Institute of Building (CIoB), Fellow of the Faculty of Building (FFB) and Fellow of the Institute of Directors (FInstD).'

Can anyone match this? Dare they?
