So let's say the completely made-up NET team of Wemmick Heights has a newly elected Team Leader, Joe Gargery, after TL Thérèse Defarge had an [[wikipedia:Madame_Defarge|unfortunate guillotine accident]]. Joe wishes to take a more collaborative and delegative approach than Madame Defarge did. He asks his team to come together to plan out their next twelve meetings (they meet once a month, so this will cover the year for them). After discussing their goals, they agreed on the following calendar:
