I blogged about my own experience on UBC’s Board of Governors, and others’ but I did not mention the biggest surprise of all.
It was supposed to be a four Board meetings per year affair. The reality was different, and I am not counting the receptions, dinners, special events, etc…, since I attended very few of those. So here was the schedule of 2010. I kid you not!
