An Action Guide to Finding Common Ground on Organisations and Communities.
Second Edition.
This book is a step-by-step guide to the principles, techniques, and trade secrets on group dynamics that are essential for the successful running of "future search" conferences, in which constructive action among parties previously unacquainted or in conflict is sought.
In a "future search" conference, people from various backgrounds who have a stake in an organisation come together for two or three days to explore their mutual future in a global context. They seek common ground; invent ideal futures rather than work old problems; and generate creative strategies, actions plans and broad commitment.
This book includes the latest refinements to the "future search" process, providing new ways of thinking and an entirely new chapter on how to facilitate "future search" conferences.
