District. The mainline station for Kendal is Oxenholme, The Lake

Title: Advanced Decision Explorer Workshop.
Date: Friday 02 December 2005
Tutor: Prof.  Fran Ackermann, University of Strathclyde 
Location: Kendal, Cumbria. (mainline station is Oxenholme, The Lake 
District)
Brief description: One day, hands-on workshop that will focus on 
cognitive/ causal mapping and Decision Explorer and moving between 
computer supported and paper based group decision support and 
associated facilitation issues. Fran Ackermann is co-author of the 
books: “Making Strategy”, “The Practice of Making Strategy” and, 
most recently “Visible Thinking”. Some knowledge of Decision 
Explorer is required so preparatory materials are sent out prior to 
the workshop. This is a "bring your laptop" session, so you will 
need access to a laptop for the afternoon sessions.

If you are interested in booking a place for this workshop please 
let me know as soon as possible. Thank you.

Kind regards
