I think your 'experts' in the public sector are the equivalent of meetings in the private sector. People call meetings a lot in the private sector, and they're almost always a huge waste of time, and it's because who ever called the meeting doesn't know what's going on and how to get what they want done, and they're trying to get everyone in the meeting to figure it out for them and/or do it, so they don't have to. Funny presentation BTW. I lol'd pretty hard at the "practice makes you better" mind explosion meme.
