In2:InThinking Network 2007 Forum
Passion Flowing In2 Purposeful Action -
Unleashing the Power of Us
 Each month we invite you to participate in a conference call with esteemed Thought Leaders and meet them mind-to-mind.Once a year, we invite you to meet such Thought Leaders and fellow InThinkers; and meet them both mind-to-mind and face-to-face. It's that time again.
Through our planning efforts, we select a Forum theme which is inspired by the efforts of our members to make a difference from where they are. This year we celebrate the power of our members to make a difference, together, by merging their passion and thinking for purposeful action.
This year's presentations provide us with ample opportunities to explore the potential for thinking together, learning together, and working together. Joseph Parent will set our passion in motion with his opening keynote - Believe You Belong: Inspiring Fearless Confidence. Sheldon Rovin will close by revisiting the significance of Boundary-Less Thinking, also the topic of his Ongoing Discussion later this week.In between, we'll be provoked by Ann Majchrzak, John Pourdehnad, Micah Fierstein,
Lyn Wiltse, Paul Morgan, Tony Wrice, Tracy Huston, and Bob Pratt.

Ackoff Scholarship Established by Metalex Manufacturing CEO Werner Kummerle

With great appreciation
and excitement, the In2:InThinking Network announces the inaugural
Russell L. Ackoff In2:InThinking Scholarship, established by Metalex Manufacturing founder and CEO Werner Kummerle. This annual scholarship,
in the amount of $1000, was established to honor the immense and diverse
contributions of Dr. Ackoff's work in the areas of systems thinking, creativity,
and management. He is also a prolific writer, releasing many a book in the past few years, including his last one, Management f-Laws: How Organizations Really Work, just before his 88th birthday. Over many decades, his efforts have reached across industries and continents, always delivered with grace, humor, and the utmost
respect for people who work in organizations. The In2:InThinking Network
feels incredibly fortunate to have both Werner Kummerle and Russell
Ackoff as friends, supporters, and most importantly, participants. Metalex
Manufacturing is a Forum Partner - Werner, his wife, and daughter
and son all attended the 2006 Forum. Russ has attended several Forums
as a speaker and guest of the Network, and has appeared twice as Thought
Leader for Pratt & Whitney Rocketdyne's Enterprise Thinking Network's
monthly Ongoing Discussion teleconferences. He has also been invited to share his wisdom with the entire staff of Metalex.
This scholarship, in the tradition
of In2:InThinking scholarships, is meant to enable someone to attend
the Forum, for the first time, who might not otherwise be aware of or
be exposed to the Network and its resources and goals. The 2007 recipient
might be a student, a healthcare professional, a teacher or school principal,
a government employee, a community leader - any of whom would benefit
from inclusion in the Network and contact with the incredible array
of talented and concerned people that are the Network.

In2:InThinking Network Scholarship
The In2:InThinking Network aspires to be an inclusive
organization; in practice, its philosophies, and in its partners and members. With this aim, we offer modest scholarships to help some
participate in the Forum who might not otherwise be able to attend.
There are a couple of ways we do this. Our basic scholarship is for the registration
fee, which this year is $350. The number
of these scholarships available each year is determined by the Board of
Directors, based on the expected number of attendees for the coming Forum. An allocation for two such scholarships has been made this year. Initiate your application for one of these In2:IN scholarships by registering for the Forum today.
