I arrived here yesterday afternoon. It was a glorious day and I imagined I was driving along the scenic route in a convertible with my sunglasses on and the wind going through my hair.
Two of my classmates arrived at the same time, and after refreshing ourselves, we went for what was supposed to be a "10 minute walk" to a pub... but it really took us close to an hour. Part of the extra time was because I brought the camera and took a few pictures along the way. I enjoyed a glass of Pinot Noir from a Prince Edward County winery. Light and tasty. Perfect for a patio.
Our walk back was considerably shorter, largely due to using a GPS app on my friend's iPhone. About 30 minutes later, we were back at school... in time for dinner! A little time was spent at the pub, and then I headed back to my room to do some reading.
Today, I was up at 6am. I went on a walk with a girl from a Toronto team and one of the Fit to Lead coordinators. A quick shower, quick breakfast, and the next thing you knew, class started.
We did the beer game in Operations. That was fun. My team got the next to worst results. It was a good ice breaker, though.
Lunch went by in a flash.
Then we started Global Business Strategy. I think the best thing I learned from that class today was:
"Have strong opinions, but be weakly connected to them." ~ Douglas Reid
Then there was group work, readings, the network being down until Tuesday so we have to go to the business office to print stuff... Somewhere in there, I squeezed in hitting a bucket of balls at the driving range and eating dinner.
Well... off to do a bit more reading. I have boot camp in the morning.
