Inclusive, interactive and co-creative sessions at the Drucker Forum

At the Global Peter Drucker Forum two sessions stand out for me for their open, inclusive, interactive and co-creative character: 1. The co-creation session “Re-teaming in Motion” The co-creation session on re-teaming in motion, with Bill Anderson, Michael Lurie, Michele Zanini, Kevin Nolan, and others, was highly inspiring. The room was set up without tables and chairs, which immediately created a more open and participatory atmosphere - thereby strengthening learning.
