My first essay in over seven years... grade was 80% and represents more planning and a structured approach to writing that I never achieved in my undergraduate degrees. *g* I corrected one reference before posting this - should have got that right :p
This is very much a retrospective look at things we did during the year and seeing them in the context of the literature I've been reviewing and the MBA coursework. A lot of what we did wasn't nearly as planned as it sounds now - it was very much based on things I wanted to achieve that weren't nearly as clearly defined at the time.
I knew we needed to start using the wiki more, that we needed better documentation and that Basecamp wasn't meeting our needs, that we needed to integrate and form a team (new people! new roles!), that we needed to move further towards a supportive culture of open communication, that if I was chairing, we had to build relationships I felt comfortable working in, and that we had a HUGE amount of work to do which meant we had to find ways of making that understandable, accessible, and doable.
