Me acuerdo bien el desastre con el aluvion en Antofagasta en 1991; respondieron muchos chilenos en ayudar a los de la region afectada. Espero que haya solidaridad semejante con la gente de Concepcion.

Eduardo – que tengas un buenisimo carnaval. Acá en Inglaterra el carnaval fue prohibido por Oliver Cromwell en el año 1640, y nunca fue reintroducido. Con abrazos y envidia a todos los brasileños.

The myth of progress

I blogged earlier about the puzzle in which a 50-year-old insight was being presented as a ‘new’ breakthrough in Harvard Business Review (The Edward 1 approach to running call centres, 11 Dec 09).It reminded me of an observation by Richard Kwiatkowski at Cranfield University, that some of the ‘new’ ideas such as emotional intelligence and employee engagement were well understood, and supported with a research base, in the 1920s and 1930s. Similarly, economists have been dusting off the…See More

Gracias Zulma! Espero que te guste Inglaterra. Trabajé en Nicaragua en los años 90 por un ONG británico investigando condiciones en los barrios. Fui muy impresionado por algunas comunidades en Leon organizando sus propios escuelas y programas de nutrición para los niños. Habia antes estudiado castellano en Chile, donde hice un par de reportajes. Soy periodista y autor.

No, no conozco el Art of Hosting. Quisiera saber mas.

Saludos

Felipe

Yo vivo tambien en Inglaterra, trabajo como facilitadora con metodologias de participacion y co-creacion. Has oido hablar del Art of Hosting? por lo que pones en tu perfil me parece que es algo que te podria interesar.

Saludo,
Zulma.
