color=#000080>Jaime, many years ago, I did an Open Space sponsored by
the Mesa Police Department on crafting a community-wide strategy for
combating elder abuse. Working with a citizen's design team, there were
several smaller events that employed Appreciative Inquiry which then led up
to a day of OST. I was especially touched by the outpouring of elders who
held their own alongside the politicians and city officials.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>
<DIV>Hello dear colleagues,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I am wondering if someone in the list have had an experience with the Armed
Forces or similar vertical/authoritative institution. I am about to submit a
proposal to the Insurance Cooperative of the Bolivian National Police. One of
the main troubles with the working team is that they are treated as "soldiers"
by their bosses. This situation is reproduced vis-a-vis the cooperative members
and the people that visit the institution.Do you think OS could be useful?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Have my anticipated thanks and warm regards</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Jaime</DIV>
