Hi Jack,<br>
<br>
Thanks for your suggestions which I think would be very useful when
talking to clients/sponsors. My concern is that in the situation I
currently am in, nobody really cares what kind of expertise I have, nor
am I in any position of power. I am just a "regular" parent who is
trying to "sell" the idea of OST to the whole group. So I guess I am
looking for a short illustration that may get people excited about
doing something different. Something that will get them to say: "YES!!
I wish we could something like that at our school".<br>
<br>
So if anyone has been in a similar situation, or knows of a short
illustrative example, I would very anxious to hear about that.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
Búi<br>

type="cite">Great question Bui. Here are some of the questions we
typically asks clients/sponsors to get them excited about a possible OS
event/process:<br>
<br>
Do you want to hear in a single space what people are thinking,
feeling, talking and not talking about in other spaces?
<br>
Do you want to give decision influencers and makers on this topic an
opportunity to understand the honest complexities and subtleties of the
topic?<br>
Do you want to give people the opportunity to connect together on new
ideas and alternatives to existing practices?
<br>
Do you want to help the community get to new levels of conversation
beyond where they are today?<br>
<br>
Be well,<br>
<br>
