Hi-- Would you help me?
Do you know anybody who uses storytelling in his or her work? Would you kindly pass this invitation on to that person? It is for a telephone conference call gathering this Wednesday evening (Chicago time). Thanks! :-Doug. Germann ----Forwarded Message(s)---- Invitation for a teacher/inviter of the Spirit: Many of you chose two topics for our next gathering: 1) Storytelling, and 2) Spirit in a corporate setting. We will do Storytelling first, and corporate in about 2 months. Please share this invitation with other teachers/inviters of Spirit you know. You are someone who works hard to engage the spirit of people. Please join a few others of us to discuss ways to do our work better. Inviting Sacred Story How do we foster story? What excuses do we need to ask people for their stories? What do we do with story? What does story do with us? When (and how) do we tell our story? When (and how) do we ask for their story? What do you do in a corporate setting? For instance, you might want to ask each other about when and how to use story, or you might want to actually share one of your favorites and ask for help in improving its presentation. What are the new stories we need to be telling? What is the larger story that transcends and includes all smaller stories? What is required so that our stories are true--and reach bedrock? Let's see if we can share 10 or more tips in our 60 minutes together. Maybe we can trigger new ideas. We should all pick up a couple good techniques. We will meet for one hour by telephone conference call, from 7:00 pm Central (8:00 Eastern, 6:00 Mountain, 5:00 Pacific) time on Wednesday evening, September 3, 2003. This is a gathering of and for people who are doing this work. We will be sharing our best ideas with one another. Because everyone invited is an expert, no one will be lecturing. This is time for sharing--you are invited to share what works in your teaching and writing and leading. It is not to sit back and glean. You are a teacher--teach (and learn)! You determine the value after the gathering.* If you are interested, please reply and I will get you the telephone number to call. My e-mail is mailto:76066....@compuserve.com There will be someone at our gathering with whom you need to speak. :-Doug.
