‘Conversation as Core Business Process – Part II’ with Greg Jenkins | Monday May 11, 2015 | 5.30pm

This session will build on the outputs from part I in February. For the outputs of session 1 go to Link or Blog www.facilitatorsnetwork.blogspot.com. Join us for an in depth conversation whether or not you attended the first session in February. Context (From February 2015): In 1996, the creators of ‘The World Café’ Juanita Brown and David Isaacs wrote a paper for The Systems Thinker titled ‘Conversations as a Core Business Process’. Read the paper here. In a world where social media rules and complex ideas are reduced to short grabs, how can we facilitate purposeful deep and compelling conversations? What conversation tools do we use and how well do they work? What are the opportunities if we ‘really listen’? What difference would it make if we asked the right questions? What has ‘Systems Thinking’ got to do with conversations? This session will be in a conversation format. Bring your ideas and experiences to share and join in the conversation.
