Looking for impactful speakers and ideas for BP top 40 Exec. inclusivity event...

[Christine Whitney Sanchez]

What a wonderful opportunity, Zelle, to touch these powerful folks with an
inclusivity intention.

I enthusiastically recommend Oscar Motomura, CEO of Amana-Key, a Brazilian
management consulting firm with global reach.  He is a deeply connected
visionary, an inspiring and articulate speaker, and wonderful human being.
You can reach him at motomura at amana-key.com.br &/or check out the Amana-Key
website at www.amana-key.com.br.  Oscar is a fellow Owning Member of
Chaordic Commons.  He is skilled at listening deeply, synthesizing what he's
heard and then taking the conversation to a more expanded level.

I opened space in July at the Chaordic Commons First Annual Meeting, held at
the Darden School of Business at the University of Virginia.  We have as our
Chaordic Commons purpose:  to develop, disseminate, and implement new
concepts of organization that result in more equitable sharing of power and
wealth, improved health, and greater compatibility with the human spirit and
biosphere.   There is a natural affinity for Open Space among our chaos and
complexity crowd - www.chaordic.org.  The Open Space part of our meeting
took place over 1.5 days.  Our convening question was "What are the
opportunities and challenges for growing chaordic organizations, including
the Commons, and how can we most creatively proceed?"  The convergence was
especially interesting as we were looking for initiatives and projects that
might fit into the categories of Develop, Disseminate, or Implement.

Best wishes for a successful event.

inclusivity event...


  Hello!
  I have a question that I hope you might be able to help me
  with.

  If you could have the ear of 40 powerful business people in the world,
with
  the perspective of inclusivity in mind, who would you choose to talk with
  them, what would you choose to have them experience?

  I'm helping to create an event for the top 40 executives at BP (British
  Petroleum). Which is a pretty powerful group seeing they're now the 3rd
  largest corporation on the globe. The purpose of the event centers around
  the "price of exclusion," or what happens when you create an "other." They
  realize, as a global company that moves people from country to country and
  impacts local communities, it's imperative for them to make high level
  policy decisions with inclusivity in mind. I give them a lot of credit for
  this, and have seen them really take it to heart.

  I'm in the research stage right now and would love it if you'd be willing
to
  give your thoughts on who you think might be a good speaker, or who should
  take part because their ideas are, or could be, really shaking up the
world.
  People who have firsthand experience in third world countries or within an
  organization that is heavily facing these issues and is working to deal
with
  them. That kind of thing.

  After the top 40 experience this before the end of the year, they'll
cascade
  it to the next 500 and then to about 2000 middle managers over the next
  couple of years. Any ideas?

  I want to find traditional speakers and thought leaders and definitely
  alternative people and ideas that might not fit the filter of Harvard or
  Oxford. Also, we're looking to find a good portion of the people from
  outside the US and UK, so they experience a better world view.

  Thanks so much for your thoughts! I really appreciate your knowledge.
