Whether a website, open source project, discussion group, visual art, nonprofit startup, or any kind of work, the main focus of the people who show up will be for the benefit of a group or groups of people (the "community"). Weâll have fun and develop a vision planning community of our own.
Do you not yet have a vision statement written out, or would you like to tweak or revise the one you have? Do you say things like, "I'm hoping someone will want to contribute to my project, it is for the public good after all?" Then this workshop is for you.
Third Mondays: 7-9pm Monday January 16th. Past coaches/consultants include: Russ Finkelstein (formerly Idealist Portland), Mark Grimes (NedSpace), Cheri Anderson (executive coach for Nike, startups, and small business owners), Cat Poole (social services and e-textiles).
Many others, from UX consultants to sculptors, will be here. Come mentor and be mentored here! Free of charge.
The main questions about your vision: What are your underlying motives? What phrasing describes the reason why youâre doing this?
If related questions come up organically, weâll explore. These questions of vision are where groups like âCollective Agencyâ began.
In 2 hours we will meet-and-greet (go around and say what weâre working on and what weâd like to happen with it), have a brief overview, then invest most of the time in one-on-one coaching in 15 minute sessions.
Please RSVP. Plancast is best, so people can see you're coming. Email alexlinsker@gmail.com or tweet @alexlinsker with any questions. |

Do you often consider the underlying motives behind your small business, website, open source project, discussion group, visual arts, nonprofit, startup, or any other kind of work? We're working together to develop phrasing for our vision plans that describes the reason we're doing whatever it is we're doing. However, instead of or usual fifteen minute, one-on-one coaching sessions, we'll be focusing on one presenter, Cheri Anderson!
Cheri Anderson does holistic coaching for small businesses and startups as well as executive coaching for Nike. She's a familiar face here, having coached two previous sessions, and will be introducing an important concept, "What is my vision?" We will have a brief meet-and-great before Cheri is introduced and we began to answer that question. It'll be fun working in groups to refine each other's statements and in the end have a completed vision statement.
Past presenters have been: Mark Grimes (NedSpace), Catherine Poole (social services & e-textiles) and Russ Finkelstein (formerly Idealist Portland). Come mentor and be mentored by various professionals from UX consultants to sculptors - for free!
