[Springboard] A call for advice for Wiegel, from Wiegel

[James Wiegel]

I am in Ramallah, Palestinian Territories, training 20 new facilitators to facilitate a series of 40 input workshops involving around 1000 people to develop proposals for the future of the Fateh movement and, afterwards, to provide strategic planning facilitation to various units around Palestine.  
   
  We are doing this in Arabic.  I am working with 2 people who have a good sense of facilitation, but little experience with ToP, and all believe there is something important in ToP methods that will help to develop a new, more collaborative collective spirit that can revitalize Fateh on behalf of the Palestinian people.
   
  All are working hard, though especially the naming is very disturbing and tense as they practice.  I believe this has to do both with the culture and also with the pressure and stress related to the Israeli - Palestinian conflict.
   
  Any similar experiences?  suggestions?

  Dear Colleagues,

We are urging everyone to watch the Oprah show this evening and 
participate in the Eckhart Tolle dialogue with his book The New 
Earth. We are putting together a study/corporate reading methodology 
and we want to use this book to begin that process. We will be 
getting that out soon to everyone. It is well worth downloading the 
previous discussions. We are taking Joe Slicker's advice to integrate 
this example of new writing with some of our historical work on 
consciousness and spirit.

Grace & Peace,

Jack

Strangely enough, this is the past that somebody in the future is longing to go back to.    Ashleigh Brilliant
