[Dialogue] ToP Facilitation Website - Feedback, please

[George Holcombe]

A quick glance and my suggestions would be to simplify the page with  
links to the sections, e.g. What TOPS is all about.  I find people  
read the text they want to, not everything on the page.  The pictures  
at the top are all about someone at a chart or board, a mix of  
pictures showing people working in groups, someone receiving  
certification, a picture of an outcome (person opening a door to a new  
company, project, etc.) .  A global map with the locations that you  
could click on a location and it would link to the info about that  
office and an email link would make it more dynamic than a list. It  
also dramatizes the globality much better than a list.  Also a link up  
front where they could contact you with an email link for those who  
want to contact the page host rather than a particular office.

Hope that helps.
