[OSList] lecturing on OST???

[Thomas Herrmann via OSList]

Hi Raffi-Jan

Great thread!

I add my million dollars…

 

I always offer an experience in situations like this. Mostly I facilitate a high quality pre-meeting (using Whole Person Process Facilitation, WPPF). The meeting normally lasts for 6 hours and invites the most “important” stakeholders to a great start. After the meeting they have everything they need to create an irresistible invitation and there are inspired ambassadors spreading the word – that this is something really important! 

 

In the meeting we look at the story, the present situation of the organization and then plan the process they are going into - using the Medicine Wheel Tool (purpose, leadership, vision/goals, community, management). The whole person “container” invites much of the whole person to contribute, starting with transfer in/Hopes and fears to invite people to choose to show up and be present. The content is facilitated inviting different abilities/intelligencies/types of learning giving all participants more possibilities to contribute with their best. This also creates much variation which keeps the energy high throughout the meeting. Also, before the meeting, I invite participants to look at “my” video 11 mts showing how an OST meeting might look, then we talk a bit more about the method as part of the meeting.

I love the other ideas in this thread, which of course can be very useful too, depending on the situation.

Have fun

THomas

barry, chris-jan, and all- marshl!

 

thanks so much for your suggestions--

 

i like the circle-lecture idea...

 

and koos- you're right-- perhaps it's worth it to try unpacking the assumptions...

 

we'll see what happens!

 

much warmth,

raffi

 

p.s. it looks like i may have blown up the oslist again...i see most of the jan archives are, um, gone [uptalk intonation here]
