Conclusions

A number of lessons have been stated in the previous posts, all of which are very true. I can only hope the production of the journal was as pleasant an experience for everyone else involved as it was for me. I think that the group we worked with relied upon one another heavily. Responsibilities were divided among us and yet the process was very much an integrated effort with  everyone in some way taking part in the work of everyone else. I think that a happy disposition and positive working environment was critical to our success. I feel luck also played its own role in the process, with funding coming though in the end, with so many submissions coming in etc, etc. Luck also may have seemed plentiful because of our group’s ability to over come obstacles with little discord and plenty of can do attitude. I think the lessons learned from the group dynamics we had this year are the ones, which will be the most beneficial in the future and are the ones that made the undertaking so fulfilling
