Harrison! What a book! (long)

Thu Mar 15 12:30:15 PST 2001

Hello Elena,
I wonder if any of us can "move us for a better society"? For me, I think
that what we as individuals can do is to create the conditions for health
and balance so that the individuals in any system/society can move
themselves. They seize their own power through their passion,
responsibility. And through their will for health.  I think we work with
Spirit/energy/mental/emotional/physical wholeness to create the conditions
and to sustain the conditions over the  long time and despite the apparent
obstacles and barriers. And as the creators of the conditions, holding
steady, it is important not to engage in content, or to sit with any
judgement, so that the individuals and the collective of individuals can
find their own way.

I wish you much success and joy with your work in your beautiful country.
Birgitt

Mentoring for Organizational Effectiveness
*********************************************************
For ongoing professional development, join us for training in the Genuine
Contact Program for exceptional results in organizational effectiveness.
Training dates for 2001 are noted below. Training can also be brought into
an organization at other times.

Those completing all four components of the Genuine Contact Program meet the
requirements to attend the "train the trainer" session of four days,
resulting in authorization to use the Genuine Contact Program for "in-house"
training of teams.

The Genuine Contact program is a program for building skill and capacity
within the organization, for working with change. It is designed to keep
external consultant involvement to a minimum, providing training and
mentoring work only, so that working with change is led from within the
organization. Leaders within an organization are taught to develop and use
an operating system in which business is conducted with genuine contact at
all levels on an ongoing basis. Upon completion of the sixteen days of
training, the leaders are authorized to teach others within the
organization, in an ongoing internal process, until the new operating system
is functioning fully in a growthful and effective way. During year one,
during and following the initial training, a consultant to the organization
coaches and mentors this "in-house" team as the "in-house" team leads the
change process for its own organization.

Training components of the Genuine Contact  Program are 1. Working with Open
Space Technology (4 days); 2. Working with Whole Brain Process Facilitation
(2 days); 3. Working with Cross Cultural Conflict Resolution (2 days); 4.
Advanced Work in Open Space Technology focusing on the Open Space
Organization (4 days); and 5. Train the trainer in the Genuine Contact
program (4 days).

  I've just returned from Rubtsovsk, where I really used the words of
expanding our now and your nice discovery,

  people there were very happy that they stay for 3 days woriking together
and feel like a family. isn't it great for a city? people from the city
administration worked all 3 days (there were not much, but still -4 if I
remember correctly) and from the city Counsil - 2 and from NGOs and
brilliant youth, and educational people - such an unusual stuff for all
their meetings - and they work nicely,

  and hope they can go further... what a people and what a situation!

  I really don't know where to start to move us for better society...
probably I just can not do this, but I try to do some steps at least with
the help of your words - passion and responsibility. I've heard them back in
a feedback in the closing session, so it works....

  OK, best wishes to you
  let me put some words for report later

      Dear Harrison !

      I know, I'm late in my growing up, as I've just read the book
"Expanding our NOW" - just great!

    Glad you enjoyed the books -- and it is great to hear about the work you
are doing.
