Hi Olga,
great to see you on the list.
In German, possibly in Russian, too, there is a proverb around
evaluation or giving grades in school "The sow doesn't get heavier by
weighing it!"
Have fun on the list!
And see you in Berlin November 20-22 at the Program on High Performance
with Harrison Owen.
Greetings from Berlin

Hello everyone!
My name is Olga, I currently live and work in Moscow. In 2005 I came
across OST for the first time, while I working in a telecommunications
company. In 2006, I was a participant of an OST meeting in St.
Petersburg led by Raffi Aftandelian. Then I started to use this approach
in my workshops. I want to thank Raffi for helping me see how OST and OS
principles can inform my training approach. Also, I’d like to
thank him for information about OSLIST. It helps me to acquire
additional experience and find answers to my questions.
This year I have been using OST as a part of my workshops. Usually I
offer a three hours OST meeting towards the end of each two day
workshop. These short OST meetings are an opportunity for participants
to talk about those things around which they have a real passion.
Also in August this year I conducted an OST meeting for a corporate
training club in Voronezh, a provincial city near Moscow. The theme of
meeting was “Evaluating the Effectiveness of Trainings.” I
think this kind of meeting is very important for corporate Russian
training sector. It was interesting to hear different opinions about the
evaluation of business education. Many participants thought that many
evaluation approaches are impossible as they require lots of resources:
time, money, people to do the work. And often the evaluation ends up
being more resource-intensive than the actual training, be it short or
long-term.
The meeting of corporate trainers lasted just three hours; the
sessions lasted for one hour. And the trainers spent the whole time
together.
Thanks for everything.
Greetings from Moscow,
Olga.
