AMC Meeting: Second half of Friday

After the TAGT luncheon and speaker.

Mega Issue: Transparency

Argh- it is too hard to type it all and listen at same time.

Transparency is about making the decision making process clear.
• How decisions are made
• How decisions can be influenced
• What data is used to make decisions
• How people members can be come part of the process.

Breaking into groups to discuss what action(s) the AMC take.
We answered:
• What does transparency meant you as a member.
• What does it mean to Mensa?
• Where is the common ground?

Some good discussion. Not really sure how to sum it up here.

Then the AMC sat in the audience and and watched a staff meeting, followed by dinner, then committee meetings.

At the Finance Committee meeting, Cyndi and Greg did some explaining about the differences between cash and accrual accounting and how we can say that Mensa is financially sound even though we have deficit budgets and a red bottom line on our balance sheet. I asked Greg to write up what he said for InterLink.

I didn't go to the SIGHT selection or RVC meetings.

SIGHT selection or site selection?

(I know, it was late and the brain-burn had set in!)
