We started on Day 1 to reconnect. Participants came from: Finland, Norway, Lebanon, Israel, Germany, Philippines, Romania, Netherlands, Belgium, Austria, Czech and Slovak Republics, Albania, Canada, UK. Using dialogue techniques, we explored the questions that would help us to digg deeper into our tasks and to recognize our joint emerging future. In the evening of Monday, Prof. Susanne Weber talked about Dynamics in Regional Networks.

Day 2 and 3 were dedicated to learning. Terhikki Rimannen, Dennis Morbin and Annika Ranta talked about Co-Creation in Modern Virtual Work. Megatrends of globalization and technology: we are moving into a network society.

Further inputs on Day 2 and 3: Thomas Steinert on Transactional Organizational Development, Yaron Blumenthal on Change Management Consulting in IT Implementation, Holger Nauheimer on Web 2.0 and Change Management, Rik Berbé on Energy8 - Using the Energy of Organizations.

On Day 4 and 5, we went into action planning, using Open Space Technology, facilitated by Erich Kolenaty. A couple of very interesting projects were designed, e.g. a global training course on Change Leadership.

The afternoon of Day 5 was our great day. For the last three years, Change Facilitation and the Change Facilitation Associates Network were one organization. Over the time, we had realized that in order to be more effective, we have to demerge. We have succeeded the demerger process and we have celebrated it: Our consortium now consists of a non-profit organization Change Facilitation Associates Network (Global Network for Exploring, Creating, and Celebrating Change), and Change Facilitation ltd. (A Global Partner Who Makes Change Happen in Complex Environments). Only CFAN members can become owners of this dynamic company.

Our promise: CFAN and Change Facilitation will grow and be the world's reference organizations on change, change management and change facilitation. Why don't you join us now...

More to come, when our material is processed...
