SFiO Global Meetup – User Guide to the Future

January 19, 2020, SFiO Global Meetup. The “User`s guide to the future” 

How can I use the “User’s guide to the future” as a coaching tool?

The “User`s guide to the future” is a powerful model developed by Mark McKergow for sf working with the future. In the online meeting we will explain the model and demonstrate in a live coaching how clients find signs of progress facing challenging and complex projects.

Having an idea of the first tiny signs of progress can be particularly useful in cases where the next steps are not obvious or seem uncertain. After the session, SF practitioners will be able to work with the model in coaching or team coaching situations. They can support clients in stuck and tough situations by focussing strongly on signs of progress. Leaders will have some fresh ideas how to plan and steer complex projects in an sf (and very agile) way – together with their team. In a stance of Host Leadership they will be able to better accept uncertainty. One participant will have the chance to be supported in a challenging situation by a coach and find tiny signs of progress to take home with.

SF Summer Retreat in the UK 2020

Aug 3, 2020 — Aug 8, 2020
Location : Henman Bunkhouse, Dorking, Surre
The venue and format for this year’s retreat have been chosen to support a small group spending time together in a beautiful and remote location near London in basic accommodation

The venue and format for this year’s retreat have been chosen to support a small group spending time together in a beautiful and remote location near London in basic accommodation. Arrival from Monday August 3rd, departure on Saturday August 8th.

A chance to disconnect from the busyness of every-day life, retreat to the woods, and spend time with people that share your passion and curiosity for SF.

All of this means that we can offer the event to you for £280 GBP and this lovely venue can only accommodate 14 people, so we are sharing this with you now to give you some time to reflect upon this great opportunity. As soon as registrations are open it is “first come, first served”.

If you have further questions, please contact us on SOLretreat2020@gmail.com
The organizers are looking forward to it already! Sarah Cudmore, Janine Waldman, Veerle Van Kets, Wendy Van den Bulck
