If your boss gets curious enough to try out those ideas, I highly recommend the book _Managing to Learn_ by John Shook on the topic. Cool!

Far too early to see how it will pan out, though.

That's my jaded side. My more positive side sees that I need to pass that letter along and hope it hits home somewhere. Anyway, the video on segregation is pretty cool. He didn't sell me on his book, but it's a neat exercise nonetheless.
