Comment on Corporate fun: what’s wrong with brainstorming? by Matthew Molinari

Sherry,

I think more often than not when you get groups together on a project many people are there just because they are selected and you can tell by how much time they spend playing with their phone usually. Many times it seems like the best plan is to engage people by giving them something to do before the next meeting and have them come back with ideas that everyone can discuss and give feedback on. That way, you save time but also get the best aspects of group work.

Can anyone suggest a good supplier performance package that I can use? I’ve been in the industry for a long time learning while doing business. Now I am preparing for the APICS CSCP exam and I’m thrilled with what I’ve learned on top of my base of accumulated hands on experience. I would like to use a a simple, yet all-encompassing metrics form, template, or inexpensive software package to improve supplier and corporate results. My email is hjustmann@sbcglobal.net Thank you
