Most of the participants felt that the Director's Luncheon
of 21 September '1978 went well and they were pleased with it. Most
felt that the most positive aspect of the luncheon was that it gave
them a chance to meet the director and deputy director in an informal,
relaxed situation.
At least one person felt that it would be more informative is some-
thing could be said about each topic submitted by the group for discus-
sion. On the other hand, two people felt that there should be fewer
questions. They wanted a more in-depth discussion on a couple of topics
in hopes that this would encourage more group participation.
One analyst suggested that perhaps the director should chose a
couple of topics to discuss that he feels would be of interest rather
than always adhering to the list submitted by the group. This would
be a welcome change to the format which some felt was just a re-hash of
the same old questions with the same old answers that had been discussed
at branch and division level.
Generally, the participants felt that the answers were honest and
direct. The discussion makes you realize that management is aware of
the lower level situation within OIA. This type of meeting affects the
way the analysts perceive the front office. They are useful in
establishing a good employee-management relationship and they contribute
to good morale.
Most of the participants believed that it would be nice if the
director and deputy director would visit the analysts of OIA in their
work areas from time to time.
