Organizational Fun Facts

  • The Executive Oversight Board and Executive Undersight Board create a perfect governance paradox that has confused organizational theorists for minutes.
  • There are three separate snack-related committees because snacks are serious business.
  • There are more committees (21) than there are days most people want to think about committee structures.
  • The Legal Defense Committee has never lost a legal dispute.
  • The Fun Enforcement Committee can issue citations for insufficient enthusiasm. No one has seen people who have been cited afterwards
