Tahira's post above reminds me of the buildings that go up every time there's a World's Fair--the 1893 World's Fair, in Chicago, was built almost entirely of papier-mache--but the impressions they leave are lasting. And I'd add one more thing to the meetings-as-structure analogy: keystones. critical in any relationship; absolutely, um, key in meetings and conferences, whether it be a purpose or a point person.

Goldberger also talked about how good architecture strikes a balance between aesthetics and functionality, which is also true of good meetings, I think. Good point about follow-up.Barbara Palmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16865053013591978171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3886064362591518357.post-55895916538341439322011-04-02T12:24:00.229-04:002011-04-02T12:24:00.229-04:00Barbara, what a great and thoughtful article.

Events and meetings are fascinating in that they are temporary, fleeting in time and meant to be built up to be taken down, but what happens while they are up is, and has to be, as meaningful as anything more permanent. What we build, how we foster communication while it is built, and now more than ever, how we follow up when the structure no longer exists... all the pieces are critical. Thank you for articulating this so well.Tahira Endean CMPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09400334975585811307noreply@blogger.com
