The program is specially design to leverage the power of technology in supporting women’s rights and social justice leaders and organizations to advance their work and impact.

Watching Chris model visual facilitation was inspiring. It made me examine my own practice and rekindled a goal to push my own visual facilitation skills. It’s been an interest for a long time and was recently sparked again by David Sibbet’s Visual Meetings Book.

I look forward to the NTEN NTC (Nonprofit Technology Network's conference) every year. Bringing multiple communication channels in to a contact-centered model. A significant number of the NTC sessions are focused on strategy and constituent-facing technology applications. This year, my 4th, promises to be the best yet.

Note from Beth: My colleague, Daniel Ben-Horin, from TechSoup Global has been in the nonprofit technology for decades. But when he gets excited about activity that could benefit the nonprofit technology sector, I listen. What do you think of the Campus Party model? They want their brains to matter.

In fact, Lucy has been terrific in finding new ways, like Branch , to use the social tools to facilitate a global brain around these ideas. It is using private goods for social good reasons. They shared a slide (see above) about new models we’ll see that combine both – especially the “not invented yet.”

Perhaps most of your target audience members are not technologically savvy and don???t People generally know what it is that they SHOULD be doing, but what they ACTUALLY do is often related to things beyond the rational side of their brain.

To me, this is the least interesting model, in which museums provide standard computer stations for visitors to explore web-based content. When I stretch my brain, I can imagine this being useful when: most of the museum-going audience does not have regular access to computers/web. Sepagration. while at the computers. Integration.

Our board members can facilitate personal introductions to our professional leadership. And then, as we continue to engage in this digital remote world, I think we’re all becoming much more comfortable with leveraging technology and social media to amplify our message as well. It’s how my brain works.

I hosted two sessions, one on design for participation and the other on mission-driven museum technology development.
