This photo is from Virginia Maria Romero's art show (Brilliant Three Dreamers exhihit) at New Mexico State University. The painting is titled, "Technospirit" (©2007 provided by Virginia Maria Romero) and its to be on the cover of the New Book, THE STORYTELLING ORGANIZATION -

A local professional photographer was kind enough to shoot the photo. Virginia Maria Romero, Ruth Drayer and I are working to construct a Storytelling Organization in New Mexico. I do this work as part of the TALKING STICK INSTITUTE to effect a series of Las Cruces Arts & Cultural Affairs Commission story intervention.

I am hoping that we can put a brief story inside THE STORYTELLING ORGANIZATION book, or on the jacket of The Storytelling Organization book.

We will have workshop exercises and modules to include:
      • Story Listening - How really listening to the stories of others reveals layers of knowledge that normally pass us by, and how to work with them using what we call 'storymaker' methodologies
      • Story Aliveness - How to notice stories that are living in human systems, yet taken-for-granted in 'story complexity'
      • Story Action - How story action can become the engine of creative integral-strategy development and performance improvement for your organization to make it more polyphonic (many-voiced)
      • Story Attunement - How the stories that matter are often spontaneous, abbreviated, be the least polished, yet can have the most transformational impact once 'restorying processes' are attuned
      • Story Attestation - How to attest to the organization's story ethics and the story rights of its stakeholders (including the 'integral methods')
