Reflecting on a very interesting lunchtime meeting with a new colleague from University of Manchester. There were a number of observations that were of interest. One of these was about our size and the fact we are predominantly teaching not research. Our size (all of Bradford fits in one of the four faculties at Manchester) providing a scale that should (and does?) enable more agility and the need to meet and consult with fewer people to get things moving. Refreshing to sometimes be reminded from someone else's perspective. Our scale is a definite advantage we should exploit that much more - sometimes we get too bogged down in the details.
