for Workshop #POST03 | Wednesday, 2PM–6PM; $200
Do you feel "full" at the end of a great conference? One way to make sense of a powerful experience is to reflect with others, discovering what has heart and meaning by being a mirror for each other. Join your colleagues to help internalize your own learnings and clarify what you wish to share with others back home. If you weren't able to attend the conference, this is a chance to catch the spark from those who were there. Peggy Holman and Bob Stilger will be opening the space using Open Space Technology—a process that enables a diverse group to address individual and collective meaning making.
In this workshop, you will:
- Deepen your own grasp on what you have learned in the conference
- Share your expertise and your core questions with colleagues who have learned together for the past three days
- Plan specific next steps and actions to follow-up the conference

around the issues most important to them and move their dreams into action.
Her book, The Change Handbook, co-edited with Tom Devane and

connection, collaboration, and aliveness in their organizations and communities.
