a feeling that together we can achieve something sustainable and put human, spontaneous, creative and free conversation into the centre of economic development by giving a framework in which that can happen.
My drawing abilities being in their infancy and my visual recording experience being as yet limited I would much appreciate feedback on my work as a graphic recorder trying to make sense out of info in real time:-)

What haven't we asked that you'd like to share?
Why World Café appeals to me:-)
I'm a coach so World Café is like a large scale experiment in active listening.
It seems like a logical place to be for someone who promotes appreciative inquiry
Looks like you are doing cool stuff with the graphic recording already. IT would be great to play together in Brussels for the Graphic harvesting training.
I think that there will be a some good new input, both from Nick who have done this for 5-6 years and a bit from me on how to be strategic and have a clear purpose when you engage en harvesting.
Let me know if you have any questions re the training.
Hi Elizabeth,
You can see some of my graphic recording work on my Flickr portfolio:
I know both Chris and Sabine well. They both collaborated on the grpahic recording for the World Café European Gathering in Bilbao.If you look on the photostream of World Café Europe on Flickr , you can see their work and those of many other graphic recorders!
Hope to meet you personally sometime! Greetings from Munich, Pat
