Submitted by George Por on April 24, 2008 - 07:55.

Our intention is to honor our friend, the late Finn Voldtofte, his work and spirit, by creating more than a beautiful memorial site. We want to grow a space where people can interact with and learn from his work, continue and weave it into their own.

Upanishads

Greetings!

I have a little theory about the Upanishads (Hindu mystical texts) - one that I have long been nurturing but that makes itself clearer to me every day. And I thought it might be worth sharing it here.

Upanishads means (etymologically) 'to sit down beside/close to'. Usually, it is presented as sitting down close to the Guru to acquire knowledge - but I think that this is unnecessary Guru worship (and this is where I defect). Doesn't the Guru learn from his student? What, nothing at all?

Art of Hosting in Ireland

Tagged with:
There has been a call echoing around Ireland for a while now between practitioners. This call became louder at an Art of Hosting training in Ireland in May at the Glencree Centre. The call is saying: we need to work together! So many practitioners in the third sector are crying out that they work in isolation. So we are voicing that call, and hosting an event, Island Cafe, to generate some common understanding around the need that we have to work together. Do we need a formal structure that will allow us to share information better? Do we need more spaces for authentic converstation? Do more of us need to link into existing networks of practitioners around the world?

Vicious circle to virtuous circle - collective development spiral

Tagged with:
Working with some colleagues the other day in an action learning session, we stumbled on a very powerful insight into why many organisations function the way they do and how that functioning can be released into something quite transformational.
