Dear Murli

Following Harrison's story about using OST in any language, I did a day and
half event in Brasov, Romania last September with 72 people from 5 cities.
I kept the English down to 35 minutes in total over the event, letting my
translator explain what was happening.  Interestingly, my translator who
was the sponsor became a co-facilitator about one third into the event.

I also trained 9 other facilitators by explaining the process the day
before, letting them participate and de-briefing everyone for an hour after
the event was over.  This "action learning" seemed to work well.

Of the 72 paerticipants, 95% signed up to work on implementing the action
priorities voted for at the end of our time together.

Hope this helps.

Cheers
