Conference on healthy organizations, paradox R us...

[Glory Ressler]

Hold on, all you potential gear givers!
I took another look and saw OS on the second day's agenda! A more
detailed description can be found in the pdf associated file (download
able from the site). It's planned from 10:30 - 3:30, followed by an
action planning exercise. I do find it interesting that they didn't
think to use OS in their main promotion pieces... I wonder why?

In all seriousness, I attended a workshop that Glenda Eoyang gave on
complexity science and orgs - I found her presentation very
straightforward, practical, and informative. Although I can remember
exactly how, I have the distinct impression that I gained valuable
insight and ideas.

I just have to love these Plexus Institute Conference people - I noticed
that they are also offering an incredibly alluring conference on how to
use complexity science and storytelling in order to become a better
leader. I am salivating... worshipping at the (false?) idol of
 professional development and networking perhaps.... :-)

Much warmth to you all,
glory
