> Hello again Harriet
> 
> On Tuesday-Wednesday 24-25 February Brian Donaldson and I are 
> offering a two day workshop on "Emerging stronger from a crisis" 
> at Riverglenn, in Brisbane's western suburbs.  If you have 
> colleagues or clients whom you think it will benefit, I'd be 
> grateful if you'd bring it to their attention.
> 
> It's intended for people in organisations (of any type) that are 
> currently in crisis, foresee a crisis in the near future, or wish 
> to prepare for the unexpected.  It will also be useful for people 
> who consult to organisations, and managers who would like to 
> improve their ability to seize an unexpected opportunity.
> 
> We've planned it as a very practical workshop, supported by usable 
> ideas.  Participants will be able to work on live issues.  To help 
> them in doing this, we'll be guiding them through processes that 
> draw on ideas from the fields of complexity, resilience, high 
> reliability and foresight.
> 
> Participants will be able to influence the content.  However, the 
> workshop is likely to include the following:
> 
>  o  recovering quickly from a crisis in ways that build a stronger 
>     organisation better prepared for future surprises
> 
>  o  being quick-footed enough to escape the worst of a crisis
> 
>  o  making the most of an unexpected opportunity
> 
>  o  building an organisation that is productive, agile and resilient
> 
>  o  preparing for unexpected and unknown future crises.
> 
> We'll be using action research principles and processes to fine tune 
> the workshop as it progresses.  Knowing something of our style you 
> can probably guess that it will be experiential and participative, 
> with theory and practice well integrated.
> 
> It's priced at $770.  That includes GST, lunches and morning and 
> afternoon teas.  There's an attractive early bird rate for early 
> enrolment. Contact me <bd at uqconnect.net> or Brian 
> <d.c.g. at bigpond.net.au> for further details.
> 
> Would you like to see a brochure with a little more detail?  I'd 
> be pleased to email you one.
