Despite the Cold, the Red Beads Happened!

I went out to the Forbes Road Tech Center with the idea that I would meet would-be attendees at the locked front door, and apologize for the abrupt cancellation. Imagine my surprise and delight when the door was open and a half dozen eager red bead sorters were snug inside, waiting for enlightenment!

So we went ahead and did the beads for them, not forgetting to get in all the usual information on the origins and limitations of Management by Objective, and Very Kinky Sexy People, my favorite mnemonic for Variation, Knowledge, Systems, and Psychology.

Thanks to Marilyn Reeder who was there ahead of me, and helped get things off to a smooth start.

We will discuss at the next Board meeting scheduling another Red Bead experiment. I'm guessing it would happen late spring or summer.
