About this title

Synopsis:

This text explores a new way for organizations and communities to apply global thinking and democratic values to achieve rapid whole systems improvement. In this approach - called "future searches," "search conferences," or simply "searches" - people with diverse interests who have a stake in an organization or issue come together for two or three days to explore their mutual past, present and future in a global context. The text is full of principles, techniques and trade secrets on group dynamics and facilitation methods useful for running successful future search conferences.
