The Chairmen broke up into small groups to begin the meeting in order to identify what they saw as the strengths and weaknesses of the organization's communication. They also tried to determine the priorities for officers and staff and discussed communication plans to achieve individual objectives and organizational priorities. The participants acknowledged that there is room for improvement.
