The program is a simplified version of the Swedish UGL program wich was first developed for the Swedish National Defense Academy in 1981 and is based on “Experiential Learning” (learning by doing). I think it is super and it certainly helps building a common vision and also helps retain employees and build strong networks within the company More information is found here about UGL: http://www.gallofsta.se/utbildning.asp?eduid=54&utid=4&topid=2&mainid=5&subid=0&secid=0 You may email me if you want to know more on this.
