0908 - Summary/Objective
0909 -
090901 - Follow up ref SDS 25 0000, ref SDS 24 0000.
090902 -
090903 - Submitted ref DIT 1 0000 to Bill explaining the likely cause of the
090904 - mixup on David Vannier's schedule reported at ref SDS 25 0032.
090906 -        ..
090907 -       The document submitted to Dave's secretary, Joan, shows a
090908 -       presentation entitled "Technology as an Ally" for Sunday
090909 -       morning.  Most likely, Dave saw this and assumed that was him,
090910 -       when actually it was assigned to Morris.  David's talk was
090911 -       titled a "Glimpse into the Future" scheduled for Saturday
090912 -       afternoon, which is explained in detail further in the document.
090913 -       Dave did not read the detail, and he was not given a heads up on
090914 -       his title, so he put two and two together and got 5 because
090915 -       there wasn't enough time to check the details.  Having decided
090916 -       his talk was on Sunday, based on incomplete review of the
090917 -       schedule, Dave did not take time to look at the itinery Joan
090918 -       prepared for him on 960710, when she called for help.
090919 -       ref SDS 21 0001  In any case it all worked out probably better
090920 -       because doing David and Morris on the same day, which was the
090921 -       original plan, provided better continuity, and gave them a
090922 -       chance to meet and collaborate a little on the subject at hand,
090923 -       i.e., how technology can keep leadership aligned on the
090924 -       Information Highway.
090926 -          ..
090927 -         [On 030320 similar problem scheduling speakers. ref SDS 28
090928 -         TA42
090930 -  ..
090931 - Sent a copy to David and to Morris to illustrate how Communication
090932 - Metrics works.  We make a plan, we do the work, we analyse what
090933 - happened and use that experience to plan the next step.  Suggested
090934 - they could have considered this idea while visiting Sunday morning
090935 - before telling the flock they don't know how to use technology to
090936 - align leadership.
090937 -
090938 -     [On 960721 Dave Vannier concurred. ref SDS 27 6997
090940 -  ..
090941 - This secenario seems to exemplify the goal of the paperless office
090942 - that requires integration of time and information in order to be
090943 - successful, per scenario that was:
090944 -
090945 -            ...proposed at ref SDS 12 line 452.
090946 -            ...explained at ref SDS 14 line 737
