Hi Marei,<br>
<br>
I guess that I wrote that in a way that could be misunderstood. If
anything my problem is more one of having had to high expectation of my
ability to influence others with my "good" ideas. People are usually
not that easily influenced by other's "good" ideas. If you are a
newcomer to a group and otherwise don't hold a powerful position,
people are just going to be more sceptical. What I have learned is that
when proposing an idea, it is more effective if I don't attach the idea
to me as a person but rather propose it as an idea that I have learned
about and can back it up with some examples. It is also fact that I
don't yet have any personal experience with OST to refer to.<br>
<br>
But I don't doubt that there always more internal work we can do be
more effective. I did not know about method you mentioned and I will
look more into it.<br>
<br>
Thanks for suggesting it,<br>
<br>
Búi<br>

<blockquote style="margin-right: 0px;">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>

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>
