OW design questions

OW questions

Morning Ivan, Isabel BoG and Raff

Just a quick one - as were going through some design discussions there are a few issues/questions we'd like to ask y'all about.

Is this an accurate description of the OW process? (It includes some questions)

• · All tools/equipment purchased and stored on site (on view to inspire the participants)
• · All 153 participants, mentors and facilitators congregate ( 120 participants, 18 technical mentors, 15 Facilitators including 2 Directors)
• · Opening speech by Directors ( does this include giving them sight of a list of work contracts with deadlines for completion available to the new organisation??)
• · Directors retire to their room
• · FE observe and report back on happenings
• · Participants organise themselves and make request to the FE for access to development fund, tools and work contracts
• · A small development fund, tools and contracts are made available (Can we design a work schedule to predetermine the activities they will take on – i.e. a contract to dismantle the mezzanine by the end of week 3 – or is it entirely up to the participants to decide on the order of delivery?
• · PE begins to deliver on the contracts in an unorganised way
• · A combination of the lectures on the Theory of Organisation, the learning via 'objectivised activity' and the introduction of the tools of scientific self management enable the PE to begin to organise themselves effectively
• · The sense of 'ownpowerment' develops rapidly as progress is made
• · The PE experiences shifts in organisational shape as the workshop progresses and continues to improve the effectiveness of delivery
• · The process of 'emancipation from mental slavery' is underway!!!
• · Freedom!!!

Many thank yous
