Positive Deviant Network

Do you seek to meet with a group of people to discuss and explore conversations at the very edge of thinking?

Or to dialogue about models of life and business-successes, what works, what you have learned? Models around new ways of running business, organising meetings, working with diversity, enhancing creativity and innovation etc.

Do you want to explore the reaches of science and business application?

Are you interested in keeping up to date with the leading thinkers and business applicators working today?

Or with futurists, trend makers and designers?

The Positive Deviant Network Virtual group creates a place for action oriented forward thinking pioneers and outliers to gather every month and explore, dialogue, discuss, learn, challenge thinking, create action, support, play, learn.

The Positive Deviant Network is built around two one hour calls, each month. Membership is for 12 months, with the chance to renew.

On the first meeting of the month, we will be joined by a guest Positive Deviant. You will receive advance notice of their attendance, so you are able to read their books or publications, formulate questions to ask, and be prepared for interaction. (Or not..just showing up also works.)This session will comprise an interview by the host, followed by the opportunity to have a Q@A.

The second meeting of the month will be a facilitated dialogical process around the topic introduced by the guest Positive Deviant.

Both calls will be recorded and the recordings available to download so you can re-listen, or, if you by chance are unable to attend a session, to keep up with the discussion.

The size of the Positive Deviant Network is limited to 30 people, and entry into the Network will be by application and interview process. Why? We want to be sure that each group has a similar speed. In other words, we want to be sure that we have people who process ideas and thoughts at about the same rate, so people can keep up. If there is too much of a variation of speed within a group, some people fast, some slow, the dynamic will not work. The first call of the month with the guest Positive Deviant will be a common call to all Positive Deviant Network groups.

In addition to the two calls, members of the Positive Deviant Network will have access to other resources and tools, plus the opportunity to network with like minded Positive Deviants.

*Networking with like minded Positive Deviants

*Having meaningful, powerful dialogue that is hard to find in many places

*Being able to bring questions, issues, the requirement for feedback, brainstorming etc to a group of highly capable people

*Learning from the facilitator/coach, who spends 2 days a week keeping current with global issues, technology, politics, new thought etc. Christine is your information scout and saves you the time. Plus we all learn more by leveraging each others knowledge base

*Learning from a guest speakers, other Positive Deviants, and people from diverse fields who are at the cutting edge of their game.

*Being provided with a good flow of resources and tools

*Being assured that you are challenged, learn and grow

*Have fun meeting like minded people

Is the Positive Deviant Network for you?

You will be attracted to this group if you yearn for a venue for like minded people who live to explore the very boundaries of human thought, yet with a highly practical flavour. Your time is very precious to you, and so you appreciate the time saved in having other people guide you to trusted sources of relevant information and tools.

The Positive Deviant Network includes audio download of the calls, audio download of calls with visionaries and other positive deviants, access to resources and tools and networking opportunities.

To get started, you need to do the following.

1. Email Christine McDougall requesting an interview for the PD Network.

2. We will set up a time for a telephone meeting to discuss your learning style and pace and to be sure we match you to the best group. This meeting is at no charge. You will have the opportunity to have any outstanding questions answered at this time. You will also be given the group call time options before we proceed.

3. Once we have agreed to proceed, and have decided on the best Positive Deviant Network group match for you, you will be asked to complete some simple forms and to make your initial payment (for large companies we will issue the invoice at commencement and agree to payment terms). Generally these forms take 5 to 10 minutes to complete.

4. From here you will be issued with call details.

5. If you are in any way unhappy with the PD Network experience during your first month, we will refund your first months payment to you in full and stop subsequent payments. You will be able to keep the recordings of the first month and any other resources supplied.

6. You have the opportunity to combine the PD Network monthly group with Just in Time Coaching, or any of our other coaching programs, or training programs, at a discounted fee.
