Hi all. Craig Freshley just posted a new "Group Decision Tip" at his website. It's called "Shared Vision Required". Another two of my favorite Tips are "Consensus Doesn't Mean Casual" (you still need structure!) and "Decision Method Right-Sized" (one person, three, many?). I thought you all might be interested in checking them out while preparing for group decisions. Enjoy!

Choose one of the quotes below. Tell me what you think the speaker/author means? What does it mean for your day to day life, in your relationships with others, with yourself?

Beginning in March I will present the Seven Steps to Personal and Community Transformation in a lecture/workshop series, exploring what our families, communities, nations, cultures and planet can do to change our future.
The presentations will be highly experiential, drawing upon the approaches I have developed utilizing tools like deep relaxation, meditation, guided imagery, prayer, music, movement, and
