Hi, interesting thread for me, especially because
a) "intermittend-consultancy-interventions" seem to be very "homeopathic-systemic" to me. The system follows its usual patterns, gets out of equlibrium until it enters an "urgent situation", then takes a remedy with little substance - therefore never toxic - but in high potency which brings the system back near to its ideal track/equilibrium/potencials. Then the system continues along its (changed) routines for a while, then the next high potency homeopathic intervention and so on, spiraling towards its future. Only that even the diagnistics and the selection of remedies is done by itself b) "intermittend-consultancy" becomes more and more prominent in modern development cooperation, which is my main client-system You know, I love strong metaphors, so I copied all your contributions into one wordfile, saved it in the neighbourhood of the files "HOs classic OST", "1day OST", "2day OST", "very short OST" and called it ZEBRA-OST not bad, sounds african ;-) Bernd W. ----- [email protected], on 29.01.2003 at 14:57:43 (GMT/UT + 02:00) No attachments ------------------------------------------------- Bernd Weber ------------------------------------------------- e-mail: [email protected] ---- C.P. 1462, Beira, Sofala, MOZAMBIQUE fone: +258-3-32 98 59, cellfone:+258-82-43 79 77 ---- Gumpendorfer Straße 88b/18, AT-1060 Wien AUSTRIA fone: 00431 596 86 57, cellfone: +43 0664 7667872 ---- Wenn Du meine private elektronische Diskussionsgruppe abonnieren möchtest, sende einfach eine E-Mail an [email protected] ---- Inscricao no grupo de discussao "Sistemas organizacionais": Escrever um email para o endereco <[email protected]> On Wed, 29 Jan 2003 00:01:44 EST, Joelle Lyons Everett wrote: Doug-- I received the client's pre-conference packet today, and it looks really good. The tone is better than some of the earlier messages! And they did something I really liked--they included a one-page description of each program in the organization, and another page with brief introductions of each staff member and an attractive, casual, group photo. Best of luck on your project--the topic sorely needs discussion!
