SESSION DESCRIPTION: Most people want to work in a positive organization. Yet turning an organization positive is a most difficult challenge. Relationships, teams, organizations and communities are governed by conventional cultures that naturally resist positive change.

The audience will have the opportunity to use the tools in real time, and create their own practical paths to positive organizing.
