Subject: Consensus & Facilitation Training - June 6-7 near Albany, NY


Hello,

I'm doing a Consensus & Facilitation training on June 6-7 at Easton
Mountain Center in Greenwich, NY, near Albany, for people who live in
or want to start cohousing communities, ecovillages, or other kinds of
intentional communities, or for people involved in nonprofits and
other organizations that use consensus.
The first day is about consensus, including how it works, creating
strong & helpful agendas, drafting effective proposals, and how to
empower groups to use the consensus process so it move forward toward
its goals.
The second day is about effective facilitation -- with lots of
practice!
The cost is $275 for commuters (includes lunch) and more if you camp
or use indoor accommodations, with all meals.
More information is on my website:

I'm also doing a workshop on starting successful new communities in
New York City on May 30-31.
