Grateful for the opportunity to speak about 🇯🇵-🇨🇦relations at @MemorialU’s "21st Global Business Seminars" on business in East Asia. It was an honour to speak in front of many students alongside the Ambassadors of 🇰🇷 & 🇲🇳. The exchange of ideas was enlightening! - Amb. Yamanouchi

At the closing ceremony of the NL Winter Games. Great job by the organizers for the closing ceremony. Cool getting to sing the Ode to NL and hum La Marisaillaise (St.Pierre et Miquelon participating) at the same event. Congrats to my son's team in winning a silver in basketball! – at Gander, Newfoundland and Labrador

To the skeet who broke into my car and stole my yoga bag...I hope you take the mat and blocks, practice yoga, and become less of a skeet. Also, the shorts in the bag are used. Finally, if someone sees a black North Face backpack in the Churchill Park area, send me a DM! – at St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador

One of my students recommended that I try the Dall.e2 AI around image generation. I asked it to do a modernist painting of St. John's - thought it was pretty cool and worth a share. Took about 20 secs to generate...

Made it to the UK! Nice to be on the Harlow Campus. Three awesome groups doing their final undergraduate consulting projects today. Group 3 did a great job with a competitor and marketing analysis for a local NFP hub in Harlow. Great experiential and immersive learning! – at Harlow, East

Group 1 did an amazing job presenting on their work for the Harlow Cycle Recycle Project where they developed a number of important administrative and strategic tools for the social enterprise. As well, lots of great treats brought to the final presentation by the client! – at Harlow, East

The first presentation of the day, which I made with 15 min to spare, was by the wonderful Group 3 who did a market and competitor analysis for two tech firms (led by MUN alumni Garrett Doyle)! Such great learning and professionalism by all the students! Great client(s) as well!

What was going to be a long 12 hr flight to get to London is now an even longer 24 hr journey via Wabush. Good job by AC and PAL to get me there for our Harlow student final presentations! YYT airport is still recovering with air purifiers/gates closed. Wish me luck! – at St. John's, Newfoundland and Labrador

From the Globe and Mail this morning...."Quebec has no debt to Newfoundland, financial or moral." Not sure I agree! Opinion: Quebec owes Newfoundland nothing for the Churchill Falls power contract /via @globeandmail theglobeandmail.com/business…

Day 10. On the line. So many mixed emotions, but want this strike to be over. I want students to be back in the classroom, us to be doing what we do best, and administrators doing other things than crisis management. Let's get a deal done! Happy weekend everyone! #FairDealAtMUN – at Paradise, Newfoundland and Labrador

Day 9. First day as shift picket captain pro tempore. Let me be a nerd for a sec. One of my MBA lectures is on crisis management. Fink's Anatomy of a Crisis (1986) sees organizations going through four stages that can apply very well to what we are experiencing here at MUN. 1/3

The four stages: (1) Prodromal – Risks cues that potential crisis can emerge; (2) Acute Stage/Crisis Breakout – triggering event with resulting damage; (3) Chronic – Lingers effects of the crisis; and (4) Resolution – crisis no longer a concern for stakeholders. 2/3

With the ongoing negotiations, I hope strategies can be developed to move us along as a university to a long-lasting resolution with minimal lingering effects. The first strategic step is reaching an equitable deal. Lots of resolve! Great picket team! Let’s get a deal done! 3/3
