We’ve learned that people bring 3rd Conversation to their community for a variety of reasons. It’s important that your team discusses what YOU and YOUR COMMUNITY want and need, BEFORE you dive into logistics and event planning, so you’re sure to GET what you want. And while NO practice is simple, if you’re in a complex system, such as an academic medical center, you’ll have many layers to consider, both for strategy and for logistics. You’ll want to tackle that thoughtfully and in advance. This page offers considerations and guidance as you start these more strategic conversations. Perhaps your first strategic move could be to invite others to join in these conversations. That can be a powerful way to grow your team of 3C champions! Many of these materials refer specifically to Spark experiences, but can also be used for planning Ignite experiences.
