Participation will be for conveners only and will begin at 10am on Tuesday and continue to 12pm on Wednesday. There will be a planning
session for Workshop 6 with Workspan on Wednesday from 1-3pm. Participants
are invited to stay for that planning session.
In preparation for the retreat, each convener is asked to prepare a one-page profile of the learning which has occurred in their
project. The suggestion was made that conveners work with their home teams
to develop that learning profile. Learning profiles are to be shared among
conveners in advance of the retreat. January 1 was the agreed upon date to
share the profiles on the list serve.
Proposed agenda:
The Retreat will be facilitated by Dr.
Kathleen Albrecht Zurcher, the Director of Organizational Learning
at the W.K. Kellogg Foundation in Battle Creek, Michigan. In this
role, Zurcher provides leadership for the Foundation's department
of Organizational Learning.
