I had a great day today at Eugene Kim’s Tools for Catalyzing Collaboration. This was the second of a 4 part one day workshop series. Last time we talked about how we have collaborated in groups. I was in a group with Doug Englebart. This time our group talked about how to spend 1,000,000 for social good. Then throughout the day the problem changed. The amount shrunk by 10x and we also had to consider how it related to the other ‘competing’ proposals. I really appreciate Eugene and his work in its full range. Today I feel particularly greatful to have met more good hearted collaboration minded folks who want to transform the world.
