[OSList] A Possible Future for Journalism

Not a stretch at all, I think.  Stories that invite storytelling,
belonging, meaning making, collaboration.  All the same business as OS, far
as I can tell.

Equally relevant in the realm of internal corporate communications,
including engagement work (my wife's business is global employee engagement
survey business).  I've suggested for 15 years that those surveys should
include what have become known as "Michael's two favorite questions."  The
point of the two questions is to actively invite and support conversation
about the issues raised in the survey.  How to open many small spaces with
a single invitation?  How to get beyond talking about engagement and start
actually *engaging?*

Thanks, Peggy!

Michael
