I just want to tell that I opened the space for about 90 min. with the theme suggested by Harrison. It worked out great! 3 groups had good conversations, and they took a lot of initiatives to be followed up by themselves. Before this I used the "cycle of sorrow" and let them point out their place in it. Most of them placed themselves in the letting go - reframing area, one in acceptance. Afterwards I laid out a stone, and invited whomever wanted to sheare his og her story about own process, to pick it up and be in focus for a while. Two people did this, and I believe they really invested in the group. all the best from Hege Den 13. juni 2012 kl. 14:53 skrev Harrison Owen: > Doug, you said, "And isn't there a story in one of your books about people in > a company going through the stages of grief?" > > Actually Doug, I think That is The Story and I have surely told it on > multiple occasions.
