It starts with the question.

Are you interested in learning how to engage groups of 5 to 2,000 in strategic conversations? Would you like to attend a training that will give you the skills and knowledge you need to utilize four powerful methods that are being used around the world for breakthrough thinking, decision-making and collaborative action?

It covers Open Space Technology, Appreciative Inquiry, World Cafe, and Polarity Management. I lead Open Spaces and have participated in World Cafe’s. I have done short AI process and have friends who lead long AI process and just at Nexus for Change I learned about Polarity Management and was very impressed. I would from all I know recommend this training.
WORKSHOP OBJECTIVES

  • Through experiential learning, gain a working knowledge of the principles, steps and practices of Appreciative Inquiry, World Café and Open Space Technology.
  • Practice Appreciate Interviews, small group learning and large group synthesis as part of the Discovery Phase of Appreciative Inquiry.
  • Engage in a World Café as part of the Dream Phase of Appreciative Inquiry.
  • Participate in an Open Space Technology meeting as part of Design Phase of Appreciative Inquiry.
  • Craft appreciative questions and provocative propositions in your own language and for your environment.
  • Design a large group project to take home.
  • Participate in two follow-up coaching sessions.

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.
