I just created my first Twitter account !  For the Collaborative Dining Table exercise I used my volunteer work.  Until recently I was Chair of Canadian Manufacturers & Exporters South Western Ontario Branch (CME-SWOB) and each year we hold an event of ~ 400 manufacturing professionals, awarding $20,000-25,000 in scholarships to high-school, college and university students studying careers in Skills Trades and Engineering.  Of course with Covid-19, we could not hold our event in May 2020 which was our 25th anniversary.  The dining table reflects a shift from meeting in-person monthly with our current board members to other means of communication as noted on the diagram.  As well, we recognized that our team did not have the skills / experience to shift to a virtual event in a short period of time.  We reached out to Fanshawe and offered co-ops to a video student and communication student to support our shift to virtual.  We were able to collaborate and host a successful virtual event (Sept 2020).
