In working with so-called ‘alternative’ approaches such as community visioning, it’s important to build participants’ confidence and a positive expectation. It will be easier if all members of your team support your approach and can help if another is ill or called away. When I was visited by laryngitis the day of an important dreaming workshop in Sydney in 2005, I was blessed with a co-facilitator, Sophia van Ruth, who not only was adept at these processes, but also had co-written the visioning script. I’m positive Sophia did a better job than I could have. (The visioning script is Gilt-edged Resource 1 included at the back of this book.)
