I started a 3 week internship in the private sector on Monday. The private setor--certainly money-making--is not in my bones, but, I do see this as a real opportunity to explore some variety; to look at instituional change; to look at how the private sector can change the public sector; after all, education is all that I have known.
The first thing that struck me was how quiet (and boring?) office work is. I have to say, though, that so far I have been excited by the pace and the professionalism that is omnipresent.
I'm sure both the public and private sectors focus on the deliverables/outcomes and try to do more for less. However, I will be closely scrutinising the integrity and the way business is done.
Watch this space...
