2010 Conference Workshop Proposals & Presentations [due June 19]

The conference theme for 2010 is “Collaboration in Action.”   We’re looking for folks who can share their skills, their experiences and their insights surrounding how collaboration is facilitated in their communities, in their work, and in their lives.  So, if you or someone you know has a great facilitation story please download and submit a proposal for the 2010 IAF-North America Conference in Chicago, Illinois.

Call for proposals: MAFN Workshop Series [due Friday, June 5]

If you have ever thought about doing a workshop, please give Wayne Vick, MAFN Executive Director a call (703-913-6513) so he can help you shape the proposal. The deadline for proposal submissions is fast approaching: this Friday June 5. They are seeking 16 interactive workshops presenting the concepts and practices of group facilitators across the broad spectrum of Organization Development in two venues:

1) the onsite DC Facilitators Workshop Series where workshops are designed around a 3 hour time window for a group of 25 to 50 facilitators from novices to experts; and

2) the Online Member Meetings uses www.WebIQ.net and teleconferencing services to present 6 – 2 hour workshops.

For facilitators outside of the region this is a great venue – no travel and we provide design help with your workshop to best utilize the services. If you are interested in delivering a workshop for MAFN, please send a proposal with your full contact information and resume to Wayne@FacilitationCenter.com.    For more information about what should be included in the proposal, go to the MAFN website.
