As a professional management, we strongly recommend all of you to be present at all of the scheduled moments. The are classes which we think are useful as well as 'meet your team' sessions (only with your team). These 'meet your team' time-slots are scheduled so that all members of the teams can be present: please do so. Organize in your teamcontract how you are going to organize this: look ahead at all the five weeks. Remember that you are entrepreneurs during all of the five weeks. So keep your social media, website and activities alive. This will be monitored as well. So apart from your decisions and their deadlines, you can always work on the other elements.
