Never doubt that a small group

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed people could change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."

-- Margaret Mead

Processes & Thought Leadership

Here's a collection of processes and thought leaders that I use in my practice:

Open Space Technology
Open Space Technology is an approach to organizing large-scale, participative meetings in which diverse groups come together for the purposes of managing complex issues in short periods of time, with no advance agenda, and minimal facilitation. This approach to meetings, most often attributed to Harrison Owen, generally results in a report of all topics and discussions generated by participants, isolation of critical "focal issues," and identification of next step actions. Open Space is widely known for its Four Principles: 1) Whoever comes is the right people, 2) Whatever happens is the only thing that could have, 3) Whenever it starts if the right time, 4) When it’s over it’s over, and its Law of Two Feet, which allows for movement of participants from discussion to discussion, given their judgment of where they can best learn and contribute.
