What is the protocol for cell phones, pagers, etc.?
Speakers and participants appreciate your attending to business during scheduled breaks. Phones, pagers and Blackberrys are very disruptive and we ask that they be turned off during class. Consider your absence from the office a good opportunity to give your staff decision-making and operational authority as appropriate. You will have ample time to check-in each day during breaks, which are generally taken at 10:30 a.m. and 2:45 p.m. each day.
