Hi everyone,
I find that at the end of an OS event, people have invested themselves so
intensely that the energy looks like " it's over". So like the fourth principle
says, I prefer to let go. In the preparation, I coach the host to encourage
follow-ups of all kinds in his comment during the closing circle.
I find that using the medicine wheel at the debrief meeting with the OS event
organizing committee, then later with the management team brings helps to
deepen the reflection. A very practical and useful tool which because of its
origins, helps to keep the spirit there even after the event.
I have used it as well during OS training to deepen the reflection on the
impact of the OS event that participants experience at the beginning of the
training.
So it's not necessary but it can bring value depending on the context.
Diane
