West Coast Road Trip…the REAL west coast

May 12, 2007 By Chris Corrigan Conversation, First Nations, Travel, Youth 6 Comments

I learned a new word this week: teechma. It’s the Nuu-Chah-Nulth word for heart, but it conveys a deep meaning when you hear an Elder in her village talking about why she thinks something will work, why she is hopeful about changing the system solely because we spoke about it from our hearts, our words coming from teechma. I was with my mates Wally Samuel, Kris Archie and Kyra Mason this week in three isolated villages on the north west coast of Vancouver Island, Oclucje, Ehattesaht and Ka:’yu’k’t’h’. We were travelling there on behalf of VIATT to hear what these …

MindMeister – think together (tags: mindmaps organization collaboration mindmapping tools) Great selection of fake sheets for many pop songs (tags: music) PENNsound- Poetry mp3 archive A great archive of poets reading their work. (tags: poetry mp3) Lorenz Butterfly A beautiful engine to create a Lorenz Butterfly (tags: chaos complexity) Paul Hawken: the Movement is bigger that you think This is the first time in history that a large social movement is not bound together by an “ism.” What binds it together is ideas, not ideologies. This unnamed movement’s big contribution is the absence of one big idea; in its stead …

Connecting friends

May 10, 2007 By Chris Corrigan Youth One Comment

Victoria, BC When I was in Columbus Ohio the other week it was my great pleasure to work with Silas Lusias from Kufunda village in Zimbabwe and a young woman from Columbus, Sam Werner.   Sam spent nearly three months in Kufunda last year, and the story of her trip there was recently published in a local Columbus paper.   Worth a read to see what these two people have been up to.

On the road again

May 7, 2007 By Chris Corrigan First Nations, Travel

Campbell River BC Constantly on the road these days. Just did a weekend strategic planning session with the VIATT Board – a very interesting session. We are at the point in our planning where we are developing the structures that will govern this system once we begin to assume full authority next year. This is a tricky set of questions, involving money, leadership, turf and control as we try to find the best structure that will run the system in line with deep community values. And so as we confront this moment, the Board decided to have a strategic planning …

Whoa…

May 2, 2007 By Chris Corrigan Art of Harvesting, Art of Hosting, Collaboration, Facilitation, Leadership, Links, Organization 6 Comments

You know how it is when you are so busy that you don’t have time to even think about your blog much less compose an erudite post about everything you are learning? That’s me right now. But here’s a bit of what I have been doing and some things I’m thinking about: Deepening our work with the Vancouver Island Aboriginal Transition Team including a board strategic planning retreat this weekend where we have asked board members to bring one or two people that support them in their work to contribute to the wisdom in the room. How cool a design …
