3. Matters Arising
None
4. Programme 04/05
Seminars:
Project Management: Report from Rose – the event was an overall
success; however the breakout session in the afternoon was not as
productive as hoped for. The scenarios given to the delegates were too
vague, and it would have been better to have used preset scenarios.
Space Management: Now scheduled for November 2005. Reason for delay was
finding the right speakers, and getting the focus right. One idea was
for a speaker from an Estates department. Possible names suggested:
Maureen Wade, LSE, Jane Author, Hatfield, Vivien Robertson, KCL,
someone from SOAS.
ACTION: Martin to contact Nick Bevan for suggestions.
5. Programme 05/06
Partnerships / Mergers / Collaborations: umbrella event
This would form a 2 day umbrella event, potentially for about 40 delegates.
Carole confirmed that cpd25 Steering Group are happy with the concept.
ACTION:
Carole to look into the Partnerships portion.
Catherine – Mergers; may be able to utilise connections at Senate House, such as David Pearson.
Carole to contact Kingston.
Martin to investigate LIL scheme, contact Caroline Lloyd
The sessions are likely to be about 45 minutes long, with 20 minutes
for the speaker and the remaining time for discussion, to be guided by
the speaker.
Self Issue
Not discussed as convenor not present.
Focus Groups:
Half day event.
ACTION – Dave to check with Jean Yeoh about possible crossover/conflict
with M25 (in reference to an email about focus groups sent out recently)
