International Facilitation Training WG

[Ritchie Albert]

I think it would be fair to change the name to International.

Hey Richie,

First of All the name of this group is officially "Facilitation / GA Process"

We are going to be discussing the preview and focus of this group on the Advanced Facilitation Call, as well, and your welcome to join, but this is not a light decision to make.

I am very involved in Global Communications and meetings. You are welcome to join, but you need to understand that a name is meaningless without action.

What that means is that if we want to be Global, we need to act global and plan and coordinate facilitation trainings in many languages, with full translation and 10-15 different languages.

I think we can barely coordinate and outreach for just the US, so I would strongly encourage us to stick with just the National, and anyone else can join in. Even going Continental would be a lot of work doing Spanish, but I'd be willing to try if you wanted to help.

I'd love to hear your thoughts.

Jay

That is all very reasonable, Jay. I only made the suggestion because two of the participants today were from Canada and Scotland. ;)
