Theo Epstein didn't even know how to drive, but his depth ofbaseballknowledge was enormous. The friends moved on to SanDiego and success with the Padres before the call came to come to Fenway. Steinberg and company packed up to leave La Jolla, where he had a condo on the beach. Ensconced with the Sox, the quartet set about im- proving relations with the media,theteam andthe fans whilekeeping its eyes on the prize.The World Champion- ship came in 2004. Recallingthe stunning run made by the Sox when they were one game from elimi- nation, Steinberg declared , "Reality is not determined by that which has already taken place. Reality is still your vision of what can be." Many Visions, One Meeting Visions of what can be danced in the heads of Biz- Wiz attendees astheymoved past dozens of booths dis- playing the latest products and service information. Meanwhile , small-group sessions covered ways to "Knock One Out ofthe Park" in sending a corporate mes- sage, or how to understand that e-commerceis"AWhole New Ball Game." One group, hosted by Jemma Lambert of Suffolk University and Claudia Bor- den-Brierly, an advocacy specialist for the Town of Barnstable, took as its title YogiBerra'simmortal,"The future ain't what it used to be." Baby Boomers entering their senior years, and how to cater to their needs and those of their elders, com- prised the agenda. It's an age cohort with plenty of money to spend, and con- trary to some impressions, is still spending it. People born between 1946 and 1964 see themselves as 10 to 20 years younger than their chronological age ("More like 30 or 40," a wiseacre cracked from the audience ). Nevertheless , things are starting to go downhill, and the wise mer- chandiser will start making accommodations now. Cutting down on loud noise in shops and over- stimulatingdisplaysbacked with information in tiny print is one way to attract aging Boomers as well as full-blown senior citizens. Hearing, vision, and elastic- ity of joints, muscles and skin go south. Store owners should sim- ply signage and decor, use lighting that reduces glare, and offer simple aids. One Yarmouth restaurant has a pass-around pair of reading glasses for studying those fine-print menus in dark corners. At UBS, we work with you like a two-person organization.
