Notes on Workshopology

  • Each "Workshop Leader" is responsible of the team planning, budget (costs and pricing), materials, participants.
  • So far, response from the future "workshopology board":
    • Oceane Patiny, Luc Patiny, Olivier Emery, Gustavo Santamaria, Rachel Aronoff, Roger Erismann, Vanessa Lorenzo, Sam Sulaimanov.
    • Needs to be broken down by topic.
    • Best would be to have 2 workshops a month for the 6 months of the winter (October-March) -> 12 dates (each workshop can happen twice -> 6 workshops.
