Welcome to our new home for Authors & Ideas. Authors & Ideas is a book discussion group for state employees interested in leadership and management reading in a supportive and fun environment. You can check here for our current reading, view discussion questions, and take part in the discussion even if you can't make it in person.
Yes, we will still meet at the
California State Library the 3rd Wednesday of the month for our lunch hour discussion. You can check here to find the details about our discussion group and find our
complete reading list.
New to Authors & Ideas? We started in October 2002 as a joint adventure with the State Library, facilitated by me,
an independent management consultant/trainer who spends a GREAT deal of my time providing Supervision Training. Many of my participants had expressed an interest in a forum beyond their two week required training to connect with other managers and supervisors for continued learning and discussion. After a conversation with Librarian Vera Nicholas the group was kicked off. We've been meeting almost every month since then!
