Workshop/Brainstorm

Delegates will be invited throughout the conference to nominate subjects they wish to explore further in the workshop.

At the end of the morning on Day 2, the conference chairman will present the delegates with the recommended subjects for further discussion to decide whether the afternoon will be organised into several parallel workshops on specific subjects, or a single session that will allocate a series of time slots to the subjects.

Whether the workshop system adopted is multi-stream or serial, the final session before the conference closes will allow for 'subject leaders' to report to the whole conference their group conclusions on how (if at all), their companies would consider applying the solutions discussed. 

The objective is to tap into the considerable experience among delegates and speakers that the Crew Management Conference always assembles, and to enable live peer-review of new or developing ideas and solutions.  

15:30

Coffee and presentation of team ideas, opinions and solutions
