OST in Italy?

[Valentina Bach]

My name is Valentina Bach and I am the community service coordinator in a
very special international school, the United World College of the
Adriatic in Italy, Trieste. The mission of the school is to promote
international understanding and peace by bringing together students from
conflict countries. Every student admitted has full scholarship and must
commit him/herself to do volunteer service once a week. In the last two
years I have been reading all possible Open Space material  and I tried to
facilitate a session with 100 of our students on September 2004. The aim
was to get new ideas about community service projects and initiatives. The
results were excellent: around 10 new projects which have been carried out
with commitment and dedication during the last academic year!
I also work as a consultant for some Italian local governments and I have
recently been asked to write a book on strategic planning which will be
published by one of the main Italian editors. I would like to include a
chapter on OST in my book, suggesting it is a very effective method for
strategic planning. I read the succesful stories published in the website
and I also found some cases of OST in Torino (Northen Italy) both in the
provincial and city council. Do you know about other successful stories I
could quote?
I would like to help OST spreading in Italy, especially in the No-Profit
sector. Our school is  well known, especially in the north east as an
organization that brings innovation and culture while working for peace.
We would be very happy to host a Conference.
With great appreciation for Harrison Owen and all of you in this list.
Greetings from Italy.
Valentina Bach

Good Day,
An OS List member - I need your help for a quick project.
With a global reach - I'm hoping I can tap into this group's collective 
Rolodex (Address book)...

I'm working with an Int'l team to establish a new medical device 
manufacturing center in either; Denmark / Sweden, Eastern Europe (Czech 
Republic, Estonia, Latvia, elsewhere), or Asia...

The site(s)  must be able to provide a Class 100,000 clean room and 
support high precision Injection Molding, perform contract  electronics 
manufacture  (classic Surface Mount Technology or Ball Grid Array) and 
be comfortable with both fully automated and semi-automated production..

I'm assembling the Costs of Goods Sold this week and need costs and wage 
rate information... I can use info on the 'net, but prefer to get 
information from more 'local' sources...

I appreciate your help..

I can be reached via e-Mail to Alchemists at LeadIntoGold.com or via Skype 
at NPDICoach

Thanks,

Jeffrey Edwards
