1) vegas - mandalay bay (excellent combination of meeting facilities/service/rooms/pool)
2) focus should be on strategy/goals & objectives/understanding each respective business units business & value proposition. It would also be helpful to hear your thoughts on overall strategy, direction, short & long term view re markets & opportunities.
3) should be a combination of work + fun (as a group)   
4) bring in key-note speakers - lay, skilling, whalley, delainey, etc.

Hello everyone.

In December we decided to kill our planned offsite due to market volatility.  Louise and I would like to get everyone together offsite, probably in late June (once Louise is back from holiday (just kidding)).  I think it's time to go have a little fun with the group driving Enron's success. 

I would like suggestions as to:

1)  Where to go.

2)  What should be the focus of the business meetings.

3)  Should we have business meetings or should we do something else (ie. climb a mountain)?  I'm not a strong bid on climbing a mountain. 

4)  And any other ideas you have.

In addition I would like to start having staff meetings about once a month.  The first one will be Friday May 11th at 2:30 p.m.  Please add this to your schedule.  I have invited everyone who has P/L responsibility.  Portland, Calgary and Toronto will have to be on Video or Phone conference.    

Regards

John
