Good point Chris.
I was forgetting how thick skinned a politician needs to be to work their
way through the party system, the election and so forth.
I'm even a little embarrassed at my naivete now. ooops

One of my learnings from the last year, coinciding with the practice of
peace, is about the contrast of justice and reconciliation. Justice
contains that grasping energy of conflict, a divisive feel to it.
Reconciliation is about opening space and moving forward.

Winston--
I suspect you are right on both counts, that it depends on the context and
the consciousness of the facilitator. In a situation with a lot of actual or
potential conflict, or even a high level of complexity, I don't think I would
consider stepping out of the facilitator role. In a more

situation?

Ted,
I would separate the facilitation of the OST meeting from any desire to
add to content. That doesn't mean, however, that others interested in
putting forward HM or the personal work aspect of HM, as a topic,
couldn't be invited!
Best,

I need some help thinking through an idea I have for using OST as a
recruitment tool. I'll tell you a bit about my thoughts and I hope then
you'll help me see where I'm thinking too small or too big or too
controlling or whatever. Thanks much in advance!
