Following on the heals of last week’s Seattle ISPI workshop (recap coming soon), we’ll be presenting several more talks in the coming months around the region and the US:

• October 12th at Lake Washington Technical College - My good friend and colleague Lindsay Andreotti is teaching a class this semester on “Entrepreneurship and Design”. I’ll be talking about emotional intelligence as a key differentiator for successful business leaders, and relying on ideas drawn from Cary Cherniss’ article “The Business Case for Emotional Intelligence” and introducing The Awareness Wheel.
• October 17 – 20 at OD Network Conference 2010 New Orleans – On Monday Tonya and I will present our experiential workshop “iPads & Organizations: Using Design Methods as OD Interventions”. We’ve strengthened this based on some wonderful feedback from our friends at the Seattle ISPI chapter. On Tuesday I’ll also be presenting “Can You Hear Us Now?: Connecting with the OD Network Using Social Media” with Peter Norlin, Executive Director of the OD Network. And Tuesday night I’ll be running a follow-up to last year’s workshop for practitioners in transition.
• November 15th at Pacific Northwest OD Network – Tonya and I will present our experiential workshop “iPads & Organizations: Using Design Methods as OD Interventions”.
