one of the things we had forced into our faces was the importance/urgency matrix
they tell you to prioritise things so that you do the top right box first, then the top left or bottom right, and then bottom left (if at all).
what nonsense. if you think about it, any activity which you place in the bottom row of 'not important' should be ignored entirely.
other things i learnt include that people will shamelessly (as in, while standing next to you) take credit for your work and thoughts. even if you are stuck in a hotel where your next thoughts should be of how soon you can leave, they are still concerned with showing off their sub-mental prowess to the people that run the bingo program of common sense.
happily, there was another normal on this course with who i escaped every day to the delightful city of edinburgh.
