Cohousing-L Mailing List: Laird Schaub and Participation

[Linda Hobbet (coho]

Hi,

In his course on Participation Laird described a meeting in which 
everyone is asked to describe how they are contributing to the community 
and whether they think they are doing too little or too much. He said he 
had led such sessions in multiple groups and it was always received 
positively. He also recommended a participation team whose task was to 
talk to members and help them find ways of participating in positively 
ways. The role of the team was not to police participation.

Have any communities followed this plan, especially without Laird to 
lead sessions? How well has it worked and is there any advice to help it 
be successful?

Thank you,
Linda Hobbet
