Well I am off to Brazil & Chile on Sunday and looking forward to the trip in a big way. The excursion is the culmination of my MBA program and part of my International Business class. Our group is a little on the large size for traveling, 40 people, but the school has done a great job of organizing things for us to do there and all should be fun.
Stay tuned to this blog and my Flickr.com account and I will try to keep you updated on my trip.

Panels vs. Roundtables
I have been reading Hugh's blog at gapingvoid for a few months now and I really like his perspective. He recently attended LesBlogs in Pairs and had some comments about panel discussions at conferences.
At the conferences that I've organized I have found the use of roundtable discussions to be very effective. The participants can either listen, speak, or on rare occasions do both. We have one leader at the table that sets the tone of the discussion and acts as a facilitator. It really is a great way to learn from your peers and express your ideas.
