Dear Raffi,

a long time ago, I once offered an OST Training. It was far too much work and I did not really feel well in the twin role of sponsor and facilitator.

At that time I asked myself: why?
The answer was that I will not offer trainings and started asking myself why others do offer all kinds of trainings on or with or whatever ost.

Shortly after my decision - happily involved in facilitating os events - I was hired to be the "trainer" for an ost-training. That felt ok for me. It was also hard work but more fun. And some additional income which I invested in such hobbies as the os world map, publishing a book and translating some...

I also wonder why any of us "offer" ost trainings especially in the light of the apparently widely spread notion of not "offering" ost?

Greetings and hugs to you in San Diego

Chris,
this sounds like a fascinating offering!

I'd love to make it some day to one of your trainings. And I will.

I'm curious about one thing-- It looks like - in the past, at least- you
have tended to offer Art of Hosting workshops or to offer them far more
than an OST workshop.

And so, I'm curious about this choice to offer this workshop.

The reason I ask- is that I have spoken to a number of people-
experienced facilitators- who have taken the AoH workshop and some of
them have expressed concern about how - among other things- AoH
introduces several different approaches all at the same time. And yet
each of these approaches has its own integrity (its own "form" and
"essence" to borrow Birgitt Williams' terms).

And that I have wondered how well-equipped someone is to facilitate
after taking an AoH...

Thanks for offering this workshop!
warmly,
raffi
