[OSList] Art of Hosting - Beyond the Basics, Sept 21-24, 2014 near Vancouver BC

[chris.corrigan at gmail.com]

Friends.

I’d like to invite you to join Caitlin Frost, Tuesday Ryan-Hart and Tim Merry and I on Bowen Island, BC for Art of Hosting Beyond the Basics  an intensive three day deep dive into the application of participatory methodologies to sustained systemic work with teams, organizations and communities. We are gathering from September 21-24

Rooted in the Art of Hosting, Beyond the Basics focuses on working with core teams, engaging power and influence, deep personal work to extend hosting practice and participatory leadership to large scale change initiatives.  

Beyond hosting meetings with participatory process like Open Space Technology, World Cafe and Circle, we look at how to use participatory leadership in community engagement, systemic change and large scale initiatives.  The members of our hosting team have been working with these methods over a number of years in sectors as diverse as social services, health care, child welfare, real estate development, social innovation, indigenous community development, youth work, community planning and faith communities.  We explore and share approaches of working with core teams over time to sustain the powerful results of participatory engagement.

Our September event builds on two events we hosted this spring, in Columbus OH and Mahone Bay NS   From September 21-24 we will be gathering on beautiful Bowen Island, near Vancouver British Columbia.  We would love to have practitioners from our communities of practice join us for this offering as we continue to explore and share ways in which hosting practice can deeply shift systems.  

For more information, please visit our website where you will find reflections, notes and videos from previous events.  To register, visit our BC event registration page.  

We look forward to seeing you on Bowen in the fall!
