I look forward to reading more about it. Is there a section on the site for the Cork chapter? Where and when do you meet? Thanks for dropping in, very interesting.

The Bookbuzz experience involves a facilitated discussion on themes raised by a particular business book. It is designed for time-challenged business people who don't normally have an opportunity to engage with their colleagues or other business people in such a fashion. While sometimes we cover some very serious and challenging themes, the overall ethos of Bookbuzz is funky and quirky and I do think this intersects the world of 'play'. It is through the practice of doing something new and different that we challenge ourselves to think in fresh and creative ways. Many hard-nosed business owners would roll their eyes at paying for their employees to 'play' but if this means stimulating fresh thinking and enabling innovation in work processes and business models, then why care about the 'how' and just enjoy the results!
