    Greetings! A colleague and I are planning a one-week study abroad to London – it's a model our school has used before, where we visit businesses and government entities in a seven-day period. Our students have financial and time limitations for longer more immersive trips, so we focus on this model. Our topic will be leadership and management (with an HR focus).

     

    While we have been successful in doing this, I'm wondering if anyone has suggestions/thoughts for best practices?

     

    Thank you; happy to compile and share for those interested.
