Just ran into Ryan.  Didn’t know this thread was still active.

Good with me on everything, although I think the 2nd bullet is ambitious.  Doesn’t mean I don’t support it, but will require some extra effort for planning and agenda.

Subject: Momentum

For those interested, thought we could use this thread to begin brainstorming ways to keep Class Momentum.

My thoughts:

1.       Semi-Annual Happy Hour & Dinner

§  twice per year, we pick a restaurant and have drinks and dinner

§  Nothing formal, just a means to stay connected and build friendships, i.e., no agenda/presentation, purely social

§  We all throw in on the tab, etc.

§  We randomly draw two class members to organize each dinner so the burden of organizing is dispersed

§  I’m willing to volunteer for the first one

2.       Quarterly Roundtable Discussion

§  Format is flexible, and this can be rounded out with everyone’s input

§  My initial fleeting thoughts – focus on Class alignment; once per quarter, we block out the Boardroom in Dallas and discuss high level issues/topics that speak to vision and strategy; how can we make the most impact via combined effort? i.e., our collective effort/awareness more effective/impactful than individual or group effort/initiatives

These are just suggestions – would love to hear other points of view.
