Well Martin - here is proof that maybe things are changing? Used to was (as
GBS) was won't to say, Brits and Yanks were "two people separated by a
common language."

Raffi,

 

My understanding of "initiation" in this context is "getting things
started".

 

Best wishes to you,

 

Jack

Dear listers,

While working through the OST User's Guide a few months ago, I noticed the
word "initiation" in Chapter 6, "Creating Time and Space" as the word
marking the opening of the space.

The Guide explains that initiation has these stages:

1. Welcome
2. Focus the Group
3. State the Theme
4. Describe the Process
5. Create the Community Bulletin Board
6. Open the Village Marketplace
7. Get out of the way!

How do you understand this word?

Harrison, what did you mean by this word?

It seems to hark back to your discussion of liturgy and the badly-needed
creation of a/the new life story in "Spirit: Transformation and Development
in Organizations."

appreciatively,
raffi
