It was one of the coolest things I've ever facilitated and experienced. I highly recommend learning more about it if you've never encountered the process. Weisbord's seminal book on Future Search is a great one, as is much of the subsequent work by Sandra.<div><br></div><div>John</div><div><br><div><div>On Sep 20, 2013, at 9:30 AM, Peggy Holman wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html charset=iso-8859-1"><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; ">Hello my friends,<div><br></div><div>Thought some of you might enjoy an upcoming workshop on Future Search with Sandra Janoff in Philadelphia.
