Dear associates
of the IPTL!
Here is a
sign of life after the Learning Partnership, from the core team of the IPTL. We hope that you returned well
from Sweden and that the spirit of our meeting with
friends at this beautiful place has uplifted you during the summer. The core
team, which now is Martin, Boris, Jasenka and me have been active for the past
month, meeting regulary on skype and preparing a proposal for the next
steps of the IPTL: goals and actions, organisation and decision making,
membership form, finances etc. Our main objective is to make all this very
light, effective and pragmatic and continuing the spirit that has been in the partnership from the very beginning: being among peers and having meaningful meetings. The cause we
stand for: bringing transformational learning to the next level together! We will send
the proposal to you in the beginning of September.As soon as
you all have seen and reacted & are committed to this, we will contact the CMF particants and interested people and invite them to become
associates.After the
CMF we already had several affirmations of interest for cooperation with/membership in the IPTL, both from people who were there and from others who heard the rumours about us.
Furthermore the core team will deal with a few
topics around the organisational and
financial wrapping up of the learning partnership. On this
note: if you have something to share or ask for the final report: Betsy and Jutta have started working on it and intend to make a googledoc to give to and take from. Looking at what we wrote in the LLP application again is also very helpful.
You can serve yourself from it or link to it for your own website. Thanks Guido for the great video clips! The full online version of the book (issuu) you can pretty easily embed on your website such that
visitors can flip through the book (it has a very nice animated
interface) or download it. You can do that by signing up for a free
account on issuu.com and then it can generate the code for you. You can also mention in the final report that this is the 'available-for-all'- version of the book.
For further thoughts on media appearance of the IPTL, Boris and I
would like to invite Johannes, Guido and Melinda to a skype call to discuss the
current & future media appearance of the IPTL (website, facebook, CMF
harvesting). I will send you a separate mail with a time proposal.
This is all for the moment, we'll be back soon with more! Have a wonderful day, on behalf of the core team
