Purpose: To provide an opportunity for TMT members and other interested parties to step out of the regular meeting format and review the management decisions and operations of the 2007 season in order to learn lessons that can enhance choices and decision making for 2008. The timing of agenda items are offered as a guide for the day. Depending on information presented and group dynamics it may compress or expand. Presenters are reminded that their presentations are meant to provide visual cues that spark reflection and discussion, as opposed to a full blown analysis of the issue.
