Strategic Artistry! is a galvanizing and motivating personal strategic 
planning and implementation course. It focuses on folks without external
 accountability structures (e.g. creatives and activists) but is 
applicable to all domains. Full descriptions are below.

Your first class is FREE!

Class will happen on Fridays: June 21, 29 and July 6 and 13 from 2-4pm
You can come to all classes for $40 or drop-in at $10/class. I can't 
express to you what a bargain this is! Normally this sort of workshop 
runs about $200 per person- wow!

PROMOTIONAL DESCRIPTION:
We've got passion, we've got ideas... but sometimes that awesome project
 just doesn't start or doesn't finish, for good reason or no reason. 
This tailored workshop will offer tools and tactics for starting or 
keeping our passion alive by planning and implementing DIY and DIO 
projects of all kinds, big and small. Especially for folks with 
compromised schedules, chronic procrastinators, burnouts, and those who 
just don't know where to begin or how to finish.

COURSE DESCRIPTION:
To support both personal and social movement work, this workshop offers a
 period of composed reflection, anticipation, and design to assist 
participants in self-generating an understanding of where they are/come 
from and tools to effectively work towards where they want to go, 
personally and socially. It will leverage collective knowledge to 
provide insight on the social consequences of reaching (or reaching for)
 the desired differences, and will yield specific criteria for making 
personal, social, and organizational decisions in light of these 
explorations, as well as clearly defined objectives. Techniques will 
include knowledge harvesting, small-group dialog, concept mapping, 
somatic brainstorming, image theatre, collective analysis and synthesis,
 and participatory strategic planning.

OBJECTIVE QUESTIONS:
What do you want? What are your resources? What are your inhibitors?
How will you accomplish it? What will happen if you get what you say you want?
How does the work you are doing impact what others want: personally, socially, systemically?
What criteria do you use to make decisions: personally, socially, organizationally?
