Fascinating, what you share about your group, and how you've come together... building a community around an amazing woman & her ideas, online, and now meeting in-person. Powerful, what you're doing. My blog post about Follett is one of my popular blog posts, based on number of unique viewers. Goes to show what there is a thirst for, today... i.e., constructive approaches to dealing with conflict. Appreciate your comment, and good fortune with your French Conversations. :) Thanks Albie.

I just returned from a two day gathering at Northeastern University, "Mary Parker Follett: The Boston Conversations," a small group who met online, the Mary Parker Follett network (join: http://mpfollett.ning.com/ ). 261 members from 48 countries. A still "primitive site," but we vowed last week to improve it. Our group included two from France; one from Montreal, two from Ottawa, and four from the USA (CA, MA, and ME). We started off with an exchange of how we "met" Follett, and most had the same response as you indicate, immediate fascination and desire to learn and share more. Were thinking of MPF: The French Conversations in France next year! Albie Davis, Thomaston, Maine (albiedavis@aol.com) Hi Ben,
