\"Before<\/div>\n

<\/a>Back in June of last year I facilitated a one day Open Space event for a group in Vancouver called the United Community Services Coop<\/a>. The event was called “Leading Change<\/a>” and was itself an outcome from a 2005 Open Space event<\/a> with the same group. Both these events were loking at issues of emerging leadership in the not-for-profit sector (or the “for-benefit” sector, as I am starting to call it). One of the strong desired outcomes was a strong network of practitioners in the field.
\nThe other day, Justin Ho, one of the sponsors, emailed participants to report on and invite people to some further follow up events:<\/p>\n

We did a lot of work post-event and put a lot of thought together on how an Emerging Leaders Network could work. I am personally still very excited and committed to this idea and have had some really good conversations with a number of you already about it. Some good strides have been made, but as with many things being done off the side of one’s desk, it’s been a bit hard to spend some focused time on it lately!<\/p>\n

But with all that in mind, a few of us have been talking and have decided to do an impromptu coffee on Tuesday, March 11th in Downtown Vancouver. Well, given that it’s a bit far away in the calendar, maybe it’s more ad hoc than impromptu. Either way, a few of us will be meeting at the Co-op office at 3:30pm (250-1166 Alberni Street, Vancouver) and then just find a coffee shop nearby to connect, share ideas, and talk a bit about the Emerging Leaders Network.<\/p>\n

If you are in Downtown or will be on the 11th and would like to join us, let me know.<\/p>\n

Oh and in case you haven’t seen it in your email inbox lately, the Co-op launched an eCampaign that came out of the Leading Change initiative called Passion For Work Week. It was last week and we have a few campaign posters online at http:\/\/www.leading-change.ca<\/a> Hopefully some of you had your organization take part.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I’m sure Justin wouldn’t mind hearing from you if you are an emerging leader in this field either in British Columbia or elsewhere.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
