A thread to discuss the book!

Thanks Derek -- given that our numbers are few, it definitely
makes sense to reschedule.
Michele -- I will notify people that it is postponed, can you do
a new schedule poll in a few days?
Also, maybe we should ask George Cheney to join us in that call.
We had originally decided to meet once before asking him to meet
with us, but I think it might add good energy to bring him in for
our first conversation. What do you all think?

Rescheduling would great. I am also underprepared. At our start time, I would join by phone while driving home, then join by computer by video.

So, about rescheduling... Is it too soon? Or would it be a welcome break? Certainly the basic questions of values and organization are relevant. Also, I'd like to give George Cheney advance notice.

Rescheduling it soon would be great! Think it'd be a great way to talk (co-op) shop.

Shall we schedule a meeting of the Reading Group with George Cheney, author of Values at Work? Closed Sun 16 Sep 2018 2:02AM
Checking in to see if there is interest in scheduling this special reading group session. Should I go ahead and ask George about his availability? If we have a small group, maybe we can video the discussion?

Hi all. Just checking in. When you set a date (or window) for discussion, just let me know. It would be fun to discuss various people's takes on Mondragon, especially if you've been there recently or have a particular issue/dimension of the system you'd like to discuss..
Thanks much, George

Hi George - I think the best bet is to ask you to be our guest on the Social.Coop Happy Hour. We will get a small group of people to interview you about your book and your thoughts on Mondragon. The conversation will be videotaped and uploaded on GEO. Sound okay?

I'm frankly under-prepared. I can make the call and am looking forward to the conversations, but it seems likely that more people could attend if we tried to reschedule and a few people with conflicts or who have not had time to read the book could possibly join.
