TheGermans - An applied exsample

This guy is a creative German Boss. A CEO in the creative business recognisable by his casual all black outfit surrounded by business casual and business formal others. 
Actually, he is no CEO. He is the Head of the Company and does not coordinate daily business at all. 
The meeting you see is typical for that role of a German family or privately owned corporation as much as American managers off your pay responsibility will drop the nicest of words to kick of a bigger meeting, if you did well. 
Nobody takes notes really. There is no recording and for most attendees the topic is completely irrelevant. 
Just noone may say or even think that. 
In this particular case, an extension of the buildings, all depends on clearly given Key Indicators. Budget, Space and Need. 
None is an Architect or Civil Engineer and therefore none can give qualified input to an existing drawing. 
They can say how much they have to spend (CFO), they can tell what is needed in terms of offices, workshop and storage space (CEO) and the Head of the Company could show the offers from the Architecture companies he had visited being a VIP prestige client. 
Instead this was a mindset session to understand loyalty and attitude, which is most important in a Primate or Primus driven system. 
They are just the worst....
