  • Additional CoP Opportunity from John and Charity

    Great Plains ToP (aka John and Charity will be hosting a ToP Methods Community of Practice that I wanted to share with everyone. I have put the information sent out from them below: 

    December 19, from 10:30 am - 12:00 pm MST, and you’re invited! This is your chance to deepen your skills, reconnect with the ToP community, and explore how others are applying the Focused Conversation and Consensus Workshop methods in impactful ways.

    What’s in Store?

    • Deep Dives into ToP Methods: We’ll take a closer look at the Focused Conversation and Consensus Workshop techniques, highlighting practical applications and solutions for real-world challenges.
    • Peer-to-Peer Coaching: Get valuable feedback and support from your fellow facilitators in a collaborative setting.
    • Interactive Tools: Using Zoom and Miro, we’ll create an engaging, hands-on experience for everyone involved.

    This session is completely free to attend! Whether you're a seasoned practitioner or looking to brush up on your skills, our Community of Practice is designed to help you advance your facilitation journey.

  • First Official Montana ToP Community of Practice Meeting!

    Our first (official) meeting will be November 4th, 1 pm - 2 pm. Our meetings will be on the first Monday of the month from 1 pm to 2 pm. 

    If you attended the first CoP, you should have automatically gotten a calendar invite for the Teams Meeting. If you didn't get the invite and would like to participate in the monthly CoP please email me at kaela.schommer@mt.gov and I will send it to you!  

    For this first CoP, we need to develop a mission statement, and there is no better than to utilize our ToP skills!

     Is there a person or persons who would be willing to lead us in a focused conversation or a condensed Consensus Workshop to craft a mission statement? 

    Please email me if you are interested in doing so.
