Collective Wisdom

[Barbara Bunker]

Hi Nigel,  I am delighted to find someone trying to infiltrate the ranks of those
who audit and do compliance since Billie Alban and I had our first attempt with
the Ethics and Compliance Officers (USA) at their annual meeting this summer.  We
were not doing OS but rather a general workshop to get them interested in more
engaged methods of doing their work.  I think it's a field ripe and ready for
picking and I will be interested in what happens at your conference!
