You see,
Daniel, there are some real questions here that need
clarification. I've just scratched the surface.
You're quite right. I'm not sure how the significance of a particular
project can be factored in to the amount of influence in management
decisions - or if it should be. The same would go for large and small
companies.
That's what a
community is for. *None* of us have all the answers -- you can't
do this alone!
Absolutely. But someone has to take the first step.
"A couple of weeks" is a miniscule
amount of time
to spend in organizing an initiative of this scope.
I agree - but it should be sufficient to talk to a few people, put a
simple website together, write one press release, and make an
announcement. Already I'm being criticised for spending too long on
preparation!
Ok so you took the first step, i said,
1. let's wait a bit
(your answer - we can't)
2. let's discuss it on lad
(it's your favorite forum)
3. let's do a foundation...
(...)
4. ...but let's discuss it on lad first, let's postpone the launch
(You're demanding veto power again.) (!)
That + you calling yourself a director without any election + keeping it
all confidential *definitely* *doesn't* sounds like a first step.
