One Or All?


"There is no monument erected to the memory of a committee."

Lester J. Pourciau
20th century American educator/author

There are many times more derogatory committee quotes than there are positive ones, this being but one example of the milder ones.

Why do so many find so much negative about committees while at the same time celebrating collaboration, strength in numbers, and other positive expressions of group activity?

  1. As you've said previously, there is no all or nothing to this (not all committees are all good or all bad.)

    Balance.
