[EWCP] 10-16-11 Cast - Building a Sustainable Team

[Basel A]

Stayed on topic surprisingly well! All of the last 3 casts have stayed under an hour, which has been nice. Nice and informative as usual, too.

We are trying. We have the show notes we are working off of to keep ourselves on task.

Again, the show notes (when we do them) are available at http://goo.gl/L2Syu

One hundred thousand percent correct. IMHO, the focus should be on helping the teams in years 3-4 as much as rookie teams. There are definite doldrums in those formative years.
