Dancing with the unexpected

What a disappointment! Paul Hawken left. He might be back tomorrow but he could not wait for the needed 200 ft. computer cable to be delivered. While this was being resolved, we broke into small groups for discussion. Then we regrouped to engage in a wee bit of collective problem solving over the dilemma of how to fit in the unveiling of the new adaptation of ATD for businesses when it did not fit into the open space design. There are 28 self selected topics posted on the wall ready to go for the break out groups and time is marching on.

Democracy! We voted on a compromise and are now listening to a team of 4 people deliver a full 1 hr presentation on a fabulous prototype for the new business Symposium. It’s great news too! The emphasis is on the underlying assumptions about the relation of business to society and creating new narratives for business. There are lots of new stories emerging in business introducing the new paradigm in a business context.
