The second at Rework the world at the first session I planned going to the people session. Apparently a lot of more people thought the same thing. That session was so packed to the brim some of the people wanting to go weren’t able to.

However, some people began sitting just outside the premise on the lawn. We had our own self-organized unconferenced version of the people session. Everyone sat in a circle and we started by presenting each other’s name and why we were there. After that a discussion emerged. It was all very interesting to follow. It was much like any conversation between two people. Sifting through various different subjects but which all had in common on how to grasp the subject on how do we actually rework the world towards a better future. I think having these kind of sessions would have been more productive rather than having people lecturing you which happen during quite many of the sessions. Maybe the only thing that was lacking during this people session was a more prounced goal. How do we start, right now. What kind of road shall we pave from now on? What needs to be accomplished until the next YES summit?

I guess that If I would write about all the things that we talked about it would easily be a couple of blogposts. But I’ll briefly write about what kind of subjects we talked about. We talked about leadership, how do we use leaders and role models. The meaning of words, is it important to use different words on different occasions? About organizations and what kind of role they fill. There is obviously a fundamental difference between organizations and individuals. How this movement should be worked, from top to bottom or bottom to top.

Those were some of topics that emerged. Chime in and ask away on what you think was interesting and I’ll write more about it.
