I’m Johnnie Moore, and I help people work better together

I’ve just spent two days on a training course with some colleagues I’ll be working with this autumn. It was held at the excellent Wallacespace in Central London.

Training is often done in the dreary basements of hotels or at utilitarian centres. It was great to work somewhere that really makes the effort to create a really good environment. Lots of natural light very helpful attitude and great catering. Plenty of excellent little touches, such as lots of newspapers in the cafe area, Innocent smoothies free to all, and really nice sweets and fresh nuts to nibble on… not the ghastly standard issue boiled sweets! The lunch on both days was great. I’ve put up a few little piccies of some of what I liked.

Swift trust and incentives to block it

Stowe Boyd reflects on swift trust a way that groups of freelances can work together bypassing the more elaborate bonding processes often invented by organisations. Here’s how he defines it:

Are you going to pull it together at the end?

This is question I get asked a lot in meetings especially those with more conversational and participatory formats like Open Space. It’s what’s expected of a facilitator isn’t it? Increasingly
