EDWARD DE BONO'S MESSAGE

The Team

Next week there will be a new 'lightweight' task for Team members and visitors to work upon. Meanwhile here is something for everyone to think about.

"What benefits, priveleges, rights and obligations should a member of the Creative Team have? What should a member's expectations be?"

It has been my intention to build up a band of highly motivated and skilled creative thinkers which would be available as a resource to focus on any sort of problem. It could be argued that there is no need for a Team at all for ad hoc individuals could respond as they wished.

"So what are the advantages of a Team structure?"

Let me know your thoughts. I do not promise to agree or to follow them. (edwdebono@msn.com subject:"Team Structure")

Keep the bontos coming in - but be sure to stick to the structure. The design work problem on new professions of the future closes next weekend - there is still time!
