Hi Christine,
I have questions. The first are to do with you. Why do you wish to take on
this assignment, what do you have to offer to it, and how does it align
with you fulfilling your purpose, mission and live your values?

>From these answers, I believe you will know what you want to offer based on
whether you feel it will require some educating of the client from yourself
about what is possible to truly do deep visioning.....instead of you
fitting yourself into what appears to be a shallow yet 'politically
correct' framework. Is there genuine space for engagement, emergence, and
participation beyond people being used to provide 'data'.

It seems that this may be a situation of 'they don't know what they don't
know' in terms of how important true deep visioning, engagement,
participation might provide.

Warmly,
Birgitt
