Food, 360 degree feedback and the company of LETG members? What more could you ask for?!
The Learn and Dine experience was really impressive. It was an informal way to network with the LETG members as well as discuss a very current and interesting issue - 360 degree feedback solutions. We were able to listen to an extremely well-informed speaker, who brought humour and interest to the subject as well as having fantastic food and wine! John Rice from Bowland Solutions was extremely personable and obviously had much experience of implementing 360 feedback into organisations.
Having already been involved in this process and having an established process at our firm, the presentation proved to be an excellent and welcomed supplement. The setting was ambient and the fact we had the whole downstairs of the restaurant to ourselves meant we were able to relax and fuel dialogue. The presentation worked nicely around our three course meal and gave us an opportunity to eat, drink and talk, without being overwhelmed with information. We were able to talk to colleagues who are facing similar challenges to ourselves, but whose situations are quite different from ours at A&O.
We would definitely attend another Learn and Dine event - the informal yet professional aspect of learning proved to be enjoyable and informative!
