The Don!

I enjoyed a stimulating chat with Don Ledingham over a pint (two, actually) in the Lauder sunshine this afternoon - to be honest, I think it's probably impossible to have any other kind of chat with Don! For a September late-afternoon in Scotland, it was certainly warm and sunny sitting outside the Lauderdale Hotel. We're both lucky enough to live either in (me) or close to (Don) the lovely old Royal Burgh of Lauder in the Scottish Borders. It was a conversation dotted with references to multiple metaphors, extreme learning, inverted cores (turning the traditional curriculum priorities inside out - Don might explain himself in his blog), Prince 2 (its use and abuse), openness in public sector finances, the non-linear nature of change, and oh-so-much more - all within 40 minutes or so! Great way to end the working week. I'd recommend it! Technorati Tags: don ledingham, lauder, extreme learning, multiple metaphors
