Sadly still one of the best kept secrets of our modest-to-a-fault culture. ToP as a whole is much more widely known, but we are nearly unknown by many people who know about “Open Space”, the Dialogue Method, World Café, and many other that are in the literature and which pop up quickly in a facilitation search. SO… who among us has the talent and the passion to raise the public profile of Triangles and ToP?! I’ve only done a little in this regard, usually just running off to another program rather than reflecting and sharing insights from the last one. So There. Confession.

Can you point me to someone is promotes it's use, trains others on at least an biannual basis using it, or has tried to implement it in a recognizable or tangible manner other than the Jenkins? Short mentions in books on other topics is, for my purposes, great, but is there anyone you know using it daily, weekly, or monthly to train or manage something or anything?<br><br>Jim Wiegel<br><br>"Life has got a habit of not standing hitched.
