Next week is going to be a big one. Speaking on Tuesday at the Social Enterprise Workshop in Burnie alongside some amazing operators. Always tricky to know which hat to wear as I seem to have a few different ones at the moment, but thankfully there are linkages with all of them.
Wednesday is the first of 3 workshop days with Ernesto Sirolli who has been developing the Enterprise Facilitation model for the past 25 years. It's about better assistance to those with great ideas-igniting them and really making things happen. This links beautifully with all my roles I currently have and I hope will provide greater tools to respond to the needs of individuals and organisations.
WriteResponse, the arts reviewing blog has been going for more than 2 years and we have a dynamic and skilled group of Tasmanian writers. We are hoping to review work included in Junction this year in Launceston and are even looking further afield for other opportunities to head off as a team and write, reflect and post.

The future of charity
Dan Pallotta is an enigmatic speaker and entrepreneur from the US who has been committed for many years to finding better ways to support not for profits. I was lucky enough to hear him speak in San Francisco last year and he really challenged the current situation for many community based organisations.
His book Charitable describes the inequity between profit making and charitable organisations and he suggests that there needs to be a complete shift in our thinking about giving and management.
So check out his website and the new venture he has began which combines ethics, non profits and marketing.

Are you an artist who needs support?
Everyone is different; different skills, challenges and opportunities. As such, the work we undertake with artists or anyone with an idea varies depending on the needs of the individual.
Sometimes is a bit of tweaking, a comprehensive plan or connecting you to the right people.
No matter what the need, we can help.
Email keastley@optusnet.com.au to have the first conversation

Bouquet to Bonorong
Congratulations to Greg Irons, Director of Bonorong Wildlife Sanctuary who tonight was the category winner for the Hydro Environment Award at the Tasmanian Young Achiever Awards. It was fantastic to see his hard work rewarded.
I was lucky enough to be part of the team that worked on the nomination and am thrilled to be able to offer my skills pro bono to an organisation that is looking at such creative and innovative approaches.

Another word for Coaching?
Can someone please find another word for coaching. My work with artists and individuals with an idea is proving to be extremely positive, with good outcomes and a huge sense of accomplishment and positivity. But I do find myself cringing at the terms consultant or coach, so if anyone has any other words that might suit, please send them through.
What a lucky girl I am to work with such people.
