Zingerman is a company quoted in nearly every book that consider alternative ways of managing an organization. I think sharing this experience will be be really valuable for the TC and board members, and for OpenStack as a whole (and the organizations in which they are). I hope that others will have the opportunity to join and share this experience. I agree with Thierry that a half day to discuss how to turn the training into action could be important (if not mandatory ;) ). Let us know how it was :) Alexis PS: while you will be in Ann Arbor you could also visit a joyful it company: https://www.menloinnovations.com/by-visiting/menlo-factory-tour __ OpenStack Development Mailing List (not for usage questions) Unsubscribe: openstack-dev-requ...@lists.openstack.org?subject:unsubscribe http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack-dev
