Cohousing-L Mailing List: Input re: CoHo Process Consultants

[Ruth Hirsch (partner-in-healing]

Hi,

We are approaching twenty years (! somehow!)  
 
I am writing to ask if your CoHousing  Community has worked with a process 
consultant/trainer.  If yes,
please let us know who you worked with,  if you would recommend this person,  
what went right,  what went wrong
and
please let us know about the process and the outcome.  
What was it like?
Looking back,  has it been helpful?  
Anything you would suggest?

I circulated the piece Laird wrote, 'The 100,000 Mile Check Up.'  Since reading 
that,  we are seriously looking at working with a Process Consultant here.   
Some folks here would try to work with Laird bec of his article.  One of our 
neighbors took a workshop with Diane Leaf Christian and was  impressed with her 
experience and skills facilitating group discussion of difficult community 
issues.  And Eris' name comes up in this forum,  another possibility.    And 
there may be others, perhaps even in the Northeast.

This might be delicate,  please feel free to write to me off list:

We would very much appreciate your input,
many thanks,
