fail @fedforthought
"Leaderaction/Arts Retreat is good for inter-executive bondage, and for general learnins, but not for making any plans nor any progress"
it's like, a fat kid writing about wiping his own ass. you should clearly write on a subject you have at least experienced before scrutinizing.
the very first round tables are held at both these retreats. I guess they are just for mapping out the latest trends and possibly trying to figure out what is going to be hot in winter '10, and to plan the crusades.
"Kudos to the ESS and to the CSSA who had such planning sessions last weekend."
blog entry, june 10, 2009, if so than these meetings took place june 6-7th.
mandates started may 1st.
good job highlighting the fail. maybe you should be pointing out executives that have had meetings more than once these past two months.
waaaaaahhhhwahhwahh.
untill than, tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies.

Admission: I have never been to an Arts Retreat. I did make an assumption about it. There may be factual accuracy to my claim, or my source might simply be one third-hand account of it. Such is the nature of blogging.
ReplyDeleteFact: I have never attended a Leaderaction roundtable that I came out of feeling like something was accomplished. They are just introductory, and not a planning session in any way. The PRT has *still* not set any goals for the year...
Defensive opinion: A month is not an unreasonable amount of time to let things settle before laying a path for the year. You can't get everyone on the same page until they've all picked up a copy of the book.

Why take such offense to calling Arts Retreat a huge waste of time like most of us already assume, especially since our levies pay for a retreat to "plan" when you could be like every other faculty and have planning meetings IN Ottawa. Even if it wasn't directly paid for, I'd like to see what kind of work is done for this honorarium received every month.
