I wrote a quick reflection on some of the techniques used to facilitate the meeting. Heather agreed to write up this report to share some of the content.

I spent the last two days at the TechSoup Global Summit getting inspiration overload about social media, networks, social network mapping, networks of networks, global peer learning, building a sector, nonprofit technology, and many other ideas I’m passionate about.

So much, in fact, that organizations are boarding the train without a map, a travel bag, and even a destination. Additionally, a neutral facilitator, the sponsor who brings reputation and networks, and the champion who rallies the team, are extremely vital to leading the train toward the destination.

Oldenburg is the individual to whom the term "third place" is attributed, and this well-researched 1989 book put him on the map. Oldenburg celebrates places that are less structured, less designed, less facilitated, and less content-rich than most museums want to be.
