  It was in “helping” “save” the community after Howard lost funding that I had my first big online facilitation failure. It was my urgency to figure this out that set me on my professional path as a practitioner and learner about online facilitation.

• 25 Stretch Goals for Management
  
  In the future, they must facilitate innovation and change. Share the work of setting direction. Management systems must give more power to employees whose emotional equity is invested in the future rather than in the past. Expand the scope of employee autonomy. Management systems must be redesigned to facilitate grassroots initiatives and local experimentation. Create internal markets for ideas, talent, and resources. In May 2008, a group of renowned scholars and business leaders gathered in Half Moon Bay, California, with a simple goal: to lay out an agenda for reinventing management in the 21st century. The two-day event, organized by the Management Lab with support from McKinsey & Company, brought together veteran management experts such as CK Prahalad , Henry Mintzberg , and Peter Senge ; distinguished social commentators including Kevin Kelly , James Surowiecki and Shoshana Zuboff ; and a number of progressive CEOs, including Terri Kelly from WL Gore , Vineet Nayar from HCL Technologies

• The future of the training department
  
  Most of this training activity assumed that you could prepare people for the future by training them in what had worked in the past.
