Furniture#Table tables.]]In a meeting, two or more people come together, in particular to have discussions, often in a formalized way.Instead of coming together physically (in real life, face to face), also communication lines and equipment can be set up to have a discussion between people at different locations, e.g. a conference call. In organizations, meetings are an important vehicle for human communication. They are so common and pervasive in organizations, however, that many take them for granted and forget that, unless properly planned and executed, meetings can be a terrible waste of precious resources.Because of their importance, a career in professional meeting planning has emerged in recent years.

Norbert Schmitt -Paintings & Objects-
Layers as levels of experience and awareness, symbols which can be “grasped” in the truest sense of the word: in Norbert Schmitt’s sculptures both can be found. So he builds up objects tending to small sculptural items out of wood, textiles and colour, fitting together basic geometric forms to form organic-seeming artistic creations. In contrast to his paintings colour here takes second place to form – The colour should develop for the observer,” the artist explains – and his sculptures hereby assume the character of cult objects: Resting in themselves and yet full of impulsive power at the same time, they demonstrate Schmitt’s ability to condense in a form abstract and objective elements in a vivid and subtle way.
