Hi Beret, for a while we had a business in Lamego, Portugal teaching English to folks working in Port wine companies. This is 1982-1984. Maybe it lasted longer. I am not sure. Paul

Beret, Chicago had Horizons which took over all of our travel after the fiasco with our last ‘travel agent’ who took us to the laundry. Art Smith ran Horizons. I know there was a time when some others worked with him, but I can’t remember. For some reason I am thinking of Laurie and Michael Shaw. I don’t think they are on the list and I don’t have a contact but Mary Laura does. It was at that same time that we had a word processing and printing operation. We made money for awhile, but it was not enough to keep the whole print shop operational. Louise Albright was in charge of the word processing company, Access Unlimited. After her heart attack I worked there for a couple of years. Vivian Paul was our liaison in the print shop. All the records for these companies were in the basement of Kemper, but may have been thrown out by finance when our tax liabilities expired.

Hi Beret, I am catching up on my emails. While reading a response from Margaret I read this note: Toronto: PEOPLEnergy—Jan Sanders, Ian Gilmore, and (currently) Jeanette Stanfield This is the update: Yes, PEOPLEnergy was set up as an ICA self-support business. It was Ian Graham and Jan Sanders--At various times it hired Bob Rafos, Bill Staples, Jo Nelson, Richard Kitney, Deanna Hickey and others as consultants. It was launched around 1985. PE joined with Ian Gilmore's Technology Transfer on several contracts. PE continues as our self-support vehicle.

I don't know if this is relevant or not, but here is some ICA history that may not be part of the record. In Zagreb, Croatia, in 1993, Susan Yates and I established both ICA Croatia and FYI Ltd. (Fertig Yates International), the former as an NGO or non-profit and the latter as a commercial organization doing the same thing as ICA only for commercial customers. One of the notable FYI clients was the Intercontinental Hotel in Zagreb, for which we did strategic planning and then, after Susan Yates left ICA and FYI, I did a 6-month followup using the Wall of Wonder to assess their progress on the strategic planning and to lead into quarterly action planning. ICA Croatia trained about 200 facilitators from both international and local organizations who were working in refugee camps and divided cities. Some of those organizations were Red Cross/Red Crescent, American Refugee Committee, International Rescue Committee, Save the Children, Marie Stopes International, CARE (parent company in Atlanta), and United Methodist Committee on Relief. Linda Alton came from Brussels to serve on the faculty for one of our trainings. When I left to move to Sarajevo, I turned over the organization to Zlata Pavic (whom I'd brought to the U.S. for additional training under Sherwood and Eunice Shankland and Laura Spencer) and Drazen Letica, the two most skilled of our local ICA trainers. I have lost contact with Drazen, but Zlata still occasionally attends European meetings of ICA/IAF I believe. The Zagreb team traveled with me to the Global Gathering in Lonavala-was that 1994? In 1995 I was one of 5 ICA representatives to attend the UN Women's Conference in Beijing as an official observer delegation, and we led a couple of workshops at the shadow conference in Huai Roo. In Sarajevo, I established and registered ICA Bosnia in 1996, and a small group traveled to the Global Gathering in Egypt that year, where ICA Zagreb and ICA Bosnia were ratified. I facilitated a strategic planning that year for the 50 staff-members of Bospo, one of the most sophisticated of the local indigenous NGOs, and subsequently we partnered with them for our work in Bosnia. In 1997 the Oylers asked me to represent the ICA in facilitating a strategic planning of 50 regional representatives of UNDP in Moscow, and I did so as ICA Bosnia, with a Russian co-facilitator. When I went to work for World Vision in 1997, I turned the operation of ICA over to Bospo in the capable hands of Slavica Bradvic, now Slavica Bradvic Hanusic, who attended training in Phoenix with ICA and whom I continued to mentor until I left the region in 1999. At some point since, Bospo separated into two organizations, one doing micro-credit and one (under Slavica) doing ToP. Slavica has done some amazing work not only in Bosnia but across borders into neighboring republics. She can be contacted at slavicabh@gmail.com<mailto:slavicabh@gmail.com>. Local organizations do not make the kind of money that would enable them to pay the membership fees that ICA expects, so I doubt ICA Bosnia is still considered a formal ICA, and it is operating under another name though still under the leadership of Slavica Bradvic Hanusic. That said, it is still doing ToP work and is an organization ICA can be proud to have in its network.

In Zagreb, Croatia, in 1993, Susan Yates and I established both ICA Croatia and FYI Ltd. (Fertig Yates International), the former as an NGO or non-profit and the latter as a commercial organization doing the same thing as ICA only for commercial customers. One of the notable FYI clients was the Intercontinental Hotel in Zagreb, for which we did strategic planning and then, after Susan Yates left ICA and FYI, I did a 6-month followup using the Wall of Wonder to assess their progress on the strategic planning and to lead into quarterly action planning. ICA Croatia trained about 200 facilitators from both international and local organizations who were working in refugee camps and divided cities. Some of those organizations were Red Cross/Red Crescent, American Refugee Committee, International Rescue Committee, Save the Children, Marie Stopes International, CARE (parent company in Atlanta), and United Methodist Committee on Relief. Linda Alton came from Brussels to serve on the faculty for one of our trainings. When I left to move to Sarajevo, I turned over the organization to Zlata Pavic (whom I’d brought to the U.S. for additional training under Sherwood and Eunice Shankland and Laura Spencer) and Drazen Letica, the two most skilled of our local ICA trainers. I have lost contact with Drazen, but Zlata still occasionally attends European meetings of ICA/IAF I believe. The Zagreb team traveled with me to the Global Gathering in Lonavala—was that 1994? In 1995 I was one of 5 ICA representatives to attend the UN Women’s Conference in Beijing as an official observer delegation, and we led a couple of workshops at the shadow conference in Huai Roo. In Sarajevo, I established and registered ICA Bosnia in 1996, and a small group traveled to the Global Gathering in Egypt that year, where ICA Zagreb and ICA Bosnia were ratified. I facilitated a strategic planning that year for the 50 staff-members of Bospo, one of the most sophisticated of the local indigenous NGOs, and subsequently we partnered with them for our work in Bosnia. In 1997 the Oylers asked me to represent the ICA in facilitating a strategic planning of 50 regional representatives of UNDP in Moscow, and I did so as ICA Bosnia, with a Russian co-facilitator. When I went to work for World Vision in 1997, I turned the operation of ICA over to Bospo in the capable hands of Slavica Bradvic, now Slavica Bradvic Hanusic, who attended training in Phoenix with ICA and whom I continued to mentor until I left the region in 1999. At some point since, Bospo separated into two organizations, one doing micro-credit and one (under Slavica) doing ToP. Slavica has done some amazing work not only in Bosnia but across borders into neighboring republics. She can be contacted at slavicabh@gmail.com . Local organizations do not make the kind of money that would enable them to pay the membership fees that ICA expects, so I doubt ICA Bosnia is still considered a formal ICA, and it is operating under another name though still under the leadership of Slavica Bradvic Hanusic. That said, it is still doing ToP work and is an organization ICA can be proud to have in its network.

PE continues as our self-support vehicle. Richard Sims and I just returned from working at the University of Aruba in a program called Education Leadership for Collaboration. This is a unique collaboration betwen the ICA methods and Social Artistry.
Is there still time to add to the chronological history?
Warmest regards,
Janet A. Sanders

Beret,
Chicago had Horizons which took over all of our travel after the fiasco with our last ‘travel agent’ who took us to the laundry. Art Smith ran Horizons. I know there was a time when some others worked with him, but I can’t remember. For some reason I am thinking of Laurie and Michael Shaw. I don’t think they are on the list and I don’t have a contact but Mary Laura does. It was at that same time that we had a word processing and printing operation. We made money for awhile, but it was not enough to keep the whole print shop operational. Louise Albright was in charge of the word processing company, Access Unlimited. After her heart attack I worked there for a couple of years. Vivian Paul was our liaison in the print shop. All the records for these companies were in the basement of Kemper, but may have been thrown out by finance when our tax liabilities expired.
