Swarm intelligence in action

One of my coachees was struggling with a complex problem. A new team member is going to be introduced in two weeks time and an old one took another job. As the new team member needed to be seated close to his newly assigned mentor, this meant that the whole team (they are working in one big room) had to change desks. He was puzzled about how he could make everybody happy. He knew that some of them had preferences: some wanted to be seated close to the desk because they liked the direct contact…See More

The retreat goes on

Savouring my recollections of the SOL Summer Retreat, one of the phrases that lingers in my mind is Paul Z's: "I could live like this". "Me too!", I thought, "yet, the retreat will be over soon." It was Friday…

Hi Anton,

Nog eens een hele dikke merci aan jou & Liselotte voor de super leuke , energieke en inspiratie volle lunch gisteren. Jullie zijn duidelijk fanatastische licht bakens en ik vind het zeer kostbaar dat we samen ideen en vriendshp kunnen delen .

hoop dat jullie vandaag een super toffe oefen dag hebben

 

lieve groeten

Anne

I just wanted to say thank you to you and Liselotte for some inspiration you have unknowingly given me! - I have adapted your anchors and buoys exercise from the 57 activities book. I was stuck with how to get 2 new university departments to consider areas of collaboration, I read your exercise and realised I could use it slightly differently.
Islands are the key areas of expertise/ operation, Buoys in different colours are where each dept believes it has good experience and expertise and finally anchors are where, knowing what they know abut the future - they see the best areas for collaboration and partnership. These depts are geospatial depts so the marine metaphor is perfect.
Thanks again
Phil

hi, Anton, thanks for your invitation, it seems that I have tech difficulties; i thought I sent u an invitation last night; that is life; how is your kid and what is about the homesick you have mentioned in a previous mail?

Hi Anton, it was such a wonderful experience to know you a little bit more during the summer retreat. Thanks especially for your presentation about your project - it initiated many interesting discussions about "what can we do to make the world a little better".
Wish you all the best, hugs, Julia

Hi Anton I'm not sure that I had the possibility to say good by to you. Exploring Liselotte's and your work workshops at several conferences made me sure, this will be the right week for me. And I got even more. Thank you both for the wonderful engagement.

Dear Anton back home safely? Have a good restart! And maybe a little bit unreasonable...? Hug Urs

See you

Quote of the month

"Life isn't scripted."
Motto of a Canadian improv group

Quote of last month

"...dass Nachdenken und Entscheiden zweierlei ist, dass Nachdenken weder die richtige noch überhaupt eine Entscheidung hervorbringen muss, die Entscheidung vielmehr so kompliziert und schwierig machen kann, dass es lähmt." Nachdenken verlangt Zeit, Entscheiden verlangt Mut.
Bernhard Schlink, Der Vorleser, p. 302.

TIP for trainers:
On the SFBTA website you can download the Instructor's Resource Manual and the Learner's Workbook for "Interviewing for Solutions". Very useful exercises ... and it's for free!

You want to learn more about "Solution Focus"?
