August 25th 2016 - Skype call
Check-in round
Objective of the call (Maja)
- Make sure we still are all on the same page
- See how we can proceed
- Pitch
- Document to start informing people that we exist
- This text as a begginning of that process
- About both
- Process facilitation
- The working group
Round of opinions on text
Luea
- Back up to what the techniques are
- More than world café and open space, but what ?
- A bit more substance
- Name the skills, bio work
- It is not healthy to do Process facilitation alone
- Luea wants to work with bigger systems and multistakeholders, and this requests teams of facilitators, appropriately designed to the process to facilitate
- Real-life lab
- Not only as a service
- …but also some feedback to our own research practices on holistic multi-stakeholders transitions
- Not for clients, maybe for funders
- Another aspect : we have been in transitions ourselves, we have embodied the process
- Part of our USP
- We all have a daily practice of inner work, which allows to hold a level of presence
Kathleen
- Define better our USP
- Maybe from our bios
- It would be great to beta test it to our own multistakeholders platform
- Our own pitch document, for ourselves : what are planning to do ?
Maja
- Not a technique-focused group
- Give more taste on our personalities/skills, but stress the custom design aspect
- In working group description : mention of a toolbox of techniques and methods we would
- Please add quotes if you want
Michka
- Added a small item of tinkering, (un)making based workshops & connecting them to personal thoughts and reflections
- Exclusively customises processes to the groups when facilitating
- Existing toolboxes from Hosting Crafts are useful
- How can we better integrate tinkering with thinking and feeling ?
Maja
- Everything is in the doc !
- Curious about the next steps
Luea
- Map the areas we can easily have access to
- Build the narrative with others
Maja
- First working group meeting we will have after this one should be :
- Systems maps which should give us the stakeholders with whom we can safely test the story - both testing the pitch, and get some first process design exercises.
Kahtleen
- We need a name !
Maja
- Once we have the systems map, we can target the pitch towards different stakeholders
Next steps
- Maja will open :
- a document to prepare the systems mapping
- everyone put their network
- a document to put down some names
- September 23rd - 4-5 pm - Call
- Final refining of the pitch
- State of the systems mapping (on Google doc)
- How does the group work ?
- Who does what ?
- What tools ?
- What kind of small weekly contribution to the constitution of the group ?
- Name for the Process facilitation working group
- December 16th - Visual system mapping (full day blocked)
