A short video which says a great deal in only a few minutes about Future Search and getting the whole system in the room.
Watch it here
More information about Future Search - see my other blog entry - which has further links on it too. Click here
Whole system working is:
- Easily done
- Efficient and VFM - 2 facilitators can handle a group of 60, 100, 300 and more
- Effective in building resilient, connected & strategic communities or practitioners and clients / taxpayers / citizens
- Able to produce 'stractegies' (centred on action & results) rather than 'strutegies' (that look pretty on the glossy page - but that is all)
- Able to cut out endless carousels of linear consultation...
- Enlivening and empowering
Just get everyone together in a room for 1/2 day or more to:
- Review a service / project
- Plan a way forward
- Redesign or rethink a process or a service
- Write a new manual
- Sort our the requirements on a new system
- Tackle a wicked problem
- Etc
