Story Telling with large groups

[Thomas Herrmann]

I would like to put the question out again. Has anyone any thoughts on
working with storytelling with large groups? For OST I´m confident that the
limit is far but I´m not that sure when it comes to storytelling.
This coming friday I will meet another management team for a school which is
facing great challenges. There are 180 employees. I do believe in the
importance of getting the stories out before an OST-meeting but do you have
any experiences/suggestions apart from the lessons learned in recent
postings? I guess it is pretty natural that the larger the group the harder
it is for persons to have courage to step forward to tell their stories. In
"the book" I read about making interviews to catch the stories of an
organization. That might be an alternative but I wonder how the stories
could be presented to the staff prior to the OST-meeting.
Any thoughts are greatly appreciated!
