For instance, last week we were discussing efficiency.  Process efficiency, product efficiency and personal efficiency.  Having started with a “Knowlege Audit” aka what do you know abou the subject, the lecturer, who always tries to to bring the concepts alive with personal illustrations, asked  “Who works at 100% all the time” .  The answer of course was no one.  She went on to explore ways of improving efficiency and used the start of the work day to illustrate her point.  “Who arrives at work, wonders into their office and spends 15 minutes by the coffee machine”  Actually I do… sometimes more, much more and I get paid for it!

Wow, what a wonderful job!

Simon
