Who – Jason, Robin, Jane, Keli, Jorie, Neesha
How long– 10 to 12 noon, conversation started at 10:30, last 4 people wrapped up at 1.
Where – moved to patio outside coffeeshop to enjoy sunshine

Key topics:
Sharing why we chose to join the conversation
Discussion of terms and clarifying our understanding of the phrase ‘sustainability’ – are we looking to create a model or to be sustainable?
Discussion of how we might structure the conversation – might Appreciative Inquiry work?
Discussing what is the root of the issue and the role of the individual vs business in making decisions that harm the environment
‘More is better’ thinking and ‘science as proof’
Creating consensus – might the ‘Earth Charter’ be a unifying document?
Various ideas – carrot mobs, centralization, an article database on Taiwan’s environmental, sustainability status, how do we coordinate our work?

Suggested actions – check out ‘The Ecology of Commerce’ by Paul Hawken (Robin has Chinese/English copies), read the ‘Earth Charter’, check out ‘carrot mobbing’ Keli and Neesha will meet Friday to discuss group administration, computerization

Full notes -
Check in at 1030
Who are you, where are you from, expectations for today.
Jason – came to Taiwan 10 years ago from Canada. Teaching 6 years at minchuan university. Interested in environmental issues, want to move into that and away from English teaching. Ideal for today? Don’t know what to expect for today.

Keli – wasn’t originally part of group, typed up notes from original meeting, saw lots of motivation to continuing the conversation. Wanted to part of the continuation of the conversation. Want to know how to make next steps. Whole BQ would love to help inthe initiatives. What can BQ do to help carry the torch.

Jorie – was not in original group, however this topic is much in my interest and I think as a Taiwanese there’s a sense of responsibility to devote to this topic. It’s a huge topic. Here to support, discuss a way how to continue it. Similar to Imagine Taiwan topic. Two years ago, I along with some other foundations, for diversity and sustainability of a healthy environment in Taiwan using Open Space methodology. Lots of action came out the groups. Some were appreciating different aspects of Taiwan, some did other things. As a foundation person, I support where passion arose, but didn’t take very active way to follow up. I feel this topic is very big, needs other resources, other people outside of BQ who may be interested, maybe I can help to link the resourcdes. What I’d like to see today is perhaps we can generat some ways we can proceed in the conversation.

Neesha – thisconversationisthemostimportantconversation in mylife. Imightburstintotears, IdevotedEnvoin theStates, 13years inTaiwan isa gap. Thisis an integration of the two most important thingsin my life: The environment and Taiwan.  What I hope tosee today is: next steps, either forme individually or for the group as a whole.  Outline how I can get 100% up to speed on this topic of conversation as much as possible – regarding organizations around Taiwan doing similar things.  There may be a degree of redundancy, it would be good to bring together these various movements.   I also have certain beliefs and perhaps biases, I want to put them out on the table and welcome everyone to jump on them in outright agreement or disagreement.  I’m grateful to bewho I am right now and be doing this right now.

Robin: Neesha said that a lot that resonates.  I’m here mainly because of Neesha. I was very impressed with what she did two weekends ago.  And I’m also a little surprised and a little disappointed that more people didn’t show up.  Having had the opportunity from ages 1-6 to grow up on a farm and parents that liked to birdwatch, hike and so on. That sort of opportunity gives one a chance to feel apart of the environment… but I closed that off for many years while “learning to be a businessman”.  This led to a frustration that I could feel but I didn’t know.  That alienation-cum-frustration would manifest itself in other ways.  That’s a lot of our modern society.  Many of the “big”  problems can be traced to that.  That we’re sick and we don’t know it.  We’re grieving for something we’ve lost and we don’t acknowledge it. (I don’t remember saying that, but I like it – I think I must have lifted it from the Continuum Concept).  So I was very fortunate (yes, fortunate) to have gotten sick and have 2-3 months to think about what I had been doing – helping destroyers of communities – for twenty five years, make up my mind to do something else, and then start doing that.  I’m fortunate to have partners who run the law office so that I can do the things that people see – rather than much of what makes those things possible – that is left to the other partners and colleagues although I do continue to manage the firm -things like hiring others and so. Sometimes  I’m not sure if it’s fortunate or not, because the firm continues to support many commercial activities, that while legal, I believe are highly likely to be viewed in the future as criminal given our knowledge of the impact we are having on future generations and other being’s living space. I could have closed the firm a long time ago and gone off to Ali Shan or Taidong to someplace where the environment is less stressful and that may have resulted in me persuading hundreds of people to come backtothe cities and bring about change.  You just never know,  so I’m really reluctant to make any judgement.  Today.  I’m am very curious about  this.  I have lots of ideas.  I asked Neesha if there’s an agenda.  She said no.  But she also said she  has some ideas.  And I also have a whole lot of ideas for stuff that could be good for this group to go off on.
I was also impressed with what you (to Keli and Jorie) were able to do with the Big Question and the Foundation.  I had a meeting with Tammy Turner the other day.  After not seeing one another for some time we ended up in a permaculture class together  mostly about planting and design and she was effusive with praisefor Jorie. So, I’m really happy to be here with all of you.

What are we doing here today?
Neesha: one approachto setting theagenda, is to each propose topics to discuss.  My question is: What is the root …..
Let me give background: my personal perception is that there are many groups doing different things, and it looks like this:  we have dead fish in thewaters, cancer rates high, polluted lands,and there seems to be groups devoted to each one of these but no one addressing thecore problem, or even the roots of the problem. (draws a picture of a tree where each problem is represented by one branch)
Keli: Perhaps we need to define our terms first.  Define what the “roots of the problem” are.

Robin: what’s our topic today again?

Neesha: “What can Taiwan do to become a model of environmental and economic sustainability?”

Robin: It sounds like this is what Jorie did two years ago.  And if it’s not, then I might be in the wrong place this morning.  Because it sounds like this is what the Taiwan EPA does – that is, they get so engaged with models that they lose and eventually intentionally obscure the purpose and effect of what they started out to achieve.  That we’ve become obsessed witha models rather than with sustainability.  The Kanji characters and mandarin pronounciation put it  “Zhi BIao bu Zhi Ben”.(jh biao bu jh ben – 治標不治本 – curing symptoms without curing the cause)

Neesha: When I phrased that question I recognize that I didn’tknow completely what thequestion was that I wanted to ask.  I just wanted to get it in there and trust the group would mould it into what works.  When I said MODEL, I meant an “example” that other nations can imitate.  My intention is to have a 100% sustainable world!  Where do we start?  I chose Taiwan,it couldbe something else though.

What is a way to structure the conversation? Maybe Appreciative Inquiry?
Jorie; Seems to me there are at least two layers to the focused conversation.  RE: Taiwan, what does a sustainable model look like.  Then, How can be a model?  Collectively, really, what does that look like?  That’s what we need to explore.  A way to do this is an Appreciative Inquiry way.  This is a method for organizational change.  If we want to create a future, bringing out the best in the past and current to build the future is another way to bring about change.  I find there is more energy using the Appreciative Inquiry way to create change.

Robin: I have a few issues with what you said.  Your statements imply that people who use the former system rather than Appreciate Inquiry, assumes that people understand what the root causes are.  I think that’s a false assumption.  A big issue that I often see with “problem solving” is that so often we don’t know what the problem is.  So that can lead to jumping to quickly to come up with an answer or solution.

Jorie:  That’s why I hesitated before talking about this.  And I’m not the expert on this,I can tell a few stories and then lets go from there.

Robin: the first point I had was: do we have an idea of what the root problem is?  Does this methodology just fix symptoms or get to the root of the problem?

JOrie:  Appreciative Inquiry goes back to David Cooper Writer who was at the time a doctoral student in a hospital, looking for ways to change it,and discoveredthat the more he asked about problems, the more problems comeout.  So his wife who is an artist commented that when talking about art you speak first about what you appreciate about it.  So he created some interview methods that identify first what is the life force in a thing.  An organic organization vision.  Then they talk about dream, what they want to create, then we can talk about vision and approach.  Then the next phase is design, leading to actions.  So to answer what Taiwan’s sustainability looks like, Open Space will come out with all sorts of directions.

Robin: What I heard from people earlier is “How to make a sustainable Taiwan?”  So one possibility is that we’re all here to describe what a this type of environment looks like.  But what I heard from you withthe AI approach, and I have no idea about AI except what I have heard now, but it sounded as though would include taking “the best of the past” as an important part of the process, while I think we have selective memories.  And if we’re dealing with the best of the past topics, I don’t know how much emphasis we should be putting on that if we’re going to try to find some solutions. For this could lead to many false assumptions upon which we would then build our “sustainable Taiwan”. he Roadmap that I spoke about at the Big Question (sort of the charter for the business and association with which I am affiliated) it ends with something like “where are we trying to go and let’s hope we never get there.”  And I take a passage from Paul Hawken’s The Ecology of Commerce to discuss applying about a five step process in any endeavor that takes the activities from linear to cyclical. So in your example from David Cooper, the and first is the interviewing and the understanding… in the hospital example, giving people a process to express themselves.  It’s the market research, what we think we need to do, the process, the design, specs, parameters, and then we implement. What I heard you say was “destiny” and “actions” and that’s where I got stuck.  If I understood this correctly, it seems to be missing two steps in the Paul Hawken design paradigm. The studies are done, the specs are created, there is implementation. The two missing steps would be the evaluation and adjustment that wraps the linear process around to the cyclical.

Individual vs collective
NEesha: In “The Ecology of Commerce” by Paul Hawken  The corporate machines have amethodof getting their message out. But the peopledonot.  We livein a democracy but we havevery little opportunity to express ourselves at all.  Hesays also that corporations are filled with people who like the environment.  The people individually donot harm the environment,the corporations do.  So where is theopportunity for people to express what’s true.   So that’s my question: What would geneuine representation look like?  What would it look like if everyone were saying what they want about these things.

Robin: Individuals would never dream of doing as individuals what they do through organizations.

Jason: The difference is that we harm people we don’t see as equals.

Jane Lewis Joins the group by bicycle!

Jane: My husband and I were just spent the last 30 minutes talking about plastic bags.  And how there’s an enormous amount of them collecting in the ocean threatening marine life

Robin: (I was responding here to something I heard Jane say a famous and brilliant – but I think she also said arrogant – scientist about the possibility of eating plastic as a way of allowing more people to live on the Earth – I really can’t remember this).  Is more better?  I think that does drive a lot of  our thinking but my mom who is 87 takes all kinds of drugs, and while she’s getting along pretty well, she said to me once “we are living too long”. That is a question of quantity and  quality and more is not necessarily better..

Science as ‘proof’
Jane: This provokes in me an awareness of how “Science” is used in conversation.  It’s often bandied about as though it were an absolute truth and it has been shown time and again not to be.

Neesha: that reminds me of how money decides how things are assessed as “efficient”.

How do we define sustainability?
Keli: This brings us back to how we define “sustainability”

Robin: Taiwan’s basic environment law uses the definition: ‘Satisfying todays needs, note, ot  and wants without harming future generations”.

Jane: I’m Jane. I’m here because Neesha said this is going on and I said “That sounds cool!”  I want to say something about sustainability.  The word has never sat well with me my whole life.  I worked for 6 months in Honolulu researching the use of “Sustainability” particularly as a policy word.  It’s a mental construct.  It’s a judgement, assessment and policy word.

Robin: is it useful at all.  What are you here to talk about?  What attracted you to come here.

Neesha: I noticed you were saying something to answer “what brings you here” and defining sustainability..

Jane:  I think the thing people working on sustainability is attractive to me.

Jason:  I propose we each draw out on a piece of paper what we think the root problem is, and where we think we should be going, then take turns to discuss it each.

Neesha;  My concern is that I’m feeling an energetic rift between Robin & Jane andI don’t like that I just want to connect the energy for a moment,  and I just wanted to bring attention to that.  Thank you.

Creating consensus
Robin: The thing that I didn’t have a chance to say earlier is that Neesha’s point that there’s a lot going on although we haven’t gotten a chance to articulate that.  But I think we all have a sense that something’s wrong.  A lot of people feel that and are doing something about that, yet there lacks a connection, a communication that many of these efforts are just spinning while things continue to degrade (the natural & social environment).  That’s something I feel there’s a great need and opportunity to facilitate the connection between these good efforts.  And that’s something that I hope we can start making progress on.

Jason: Whether this happens or not doesn’t matter.  Something that couldunite all these things is the Earth Charter.  A lot of people collaborated on it. Their definition of Sustainability is a lot more proactive than the UN definition.  I think that would unite everything.  The social movements would

Jorie: When I was introduing AI, maybe it was too early to introduce approaches. Perhaps we’re not ready for that, we’re still talking about a topic we’re all concerned about.  We next can hold a meeting to talk with other groups that are working on sustainability.  That’s somethingI would contribute to.

Jane: SO this isn’t an easy conversation.  What I resonate with is finding the unifying question that provokes and calls people to follow topics they care about.  My personal capability is to talkabout things that people care about.  I’d like to get involved in a conversation where people feel ready to get involved in something .

Neesha;  The idea of a 2 day open Space Is interesting to me.  I don’t personally feel ready forthat.  But I like the idea of that for the future.

Keli - Creation of systems- attractive. Accelerate movement.channelbrings in resources/ nutriend sunified diretion. What’s Missingis organization / system / structure to continue to. Continue the intention. What sort of system would harmonize this together.What’s relevant today? Low barriers to entry? Matter of creating on-line? Harnesses all indiv. Voices on same internet platform. Something? In my life … opportunity to create something. A system that motivates the forward movement that all are working towards/ unifies them. Not based on me, but unified by the collective. That’s the intention .. nexttime we gather. Think of ways to reach ideal of totally sustainable world. Start with life as individual. Various communities. With this structure. If grows. Lead to ideal.

Jane – check out carrot mob – one community had 21 liquor stores. They found 1 liquor store who said they would spend 20 percent of one day’s profits to improve the energy efficiency of their store. So the carrot mob spread the word. There were people lined up for 3 hours to buy their beer there because they knew it could make a difference.

Jason – One approach is for businesses to use a ‘triple bottom line’ instead of a ‘single’one. Single – it’s just about money. But a triple bottom line includes the financial, social and environmental factors.

Centralization
Robin – One objective is to get everyone going in 1 direction, I’m wary of centralizing that, operating from a centralized direction.

Jason - Another concept is the scope – should how we organize ourselves imitate nature? Little systems on their own, coming together for certain causes. Self – organizing.

Robin – One major attraction – any one of us here at the table (all native/fluent English speakers) are likely to better informed about eh environmental sustainability issues in Taiwan than a native Taiwanese just because we have the native English capability. The ramification is that many Taiwanese do not have access to the research data, information and analysis that say foreign investors, corporate lawyers and others who don’t necessarily put the well being of the Taiwanese and our natural environmental quality at the top of their priorities . There are problems in the versions that are published – the English version may be very straightforward and include data that would be shocking to the local people, while the Chinese translation will be much softer on the government and frequently omit sensitive data. People who work for social and economic justice issues are  going up against centralized and highly organized organizations that are in effect eating up the whole world. How to address that imbalance in information? One approach is to do a literature review on environmental issues in Taiwan in English.  We get to find out what’s out there and at the same time we are creating a valuable data base that could then be used to identify important articles, which could then be abstracted or even translated for use by civic organizations in Taiwan. Perhaps start by using  index used by Taiwan’s Executive Yuan’s Sustainable Development Commission or the ESI folks at Yale. Note that part of the problem is that the National Science Council, Academia Sinica and many if not all universities provide significant incentives to publish in English and don’t appear to require an abstract, much less a translation or accurate Chinese version. The other part of the problem of course is that professors who write sharp critiques of government policy don’t want to lose their funding, so any Chinese language counterpart is a useless document.  .

An article database would help put Taiwan on the radar map of many international environment groups (the focus, as with corporations is on China). So we get to help locals with important materials and at the same time help foreign groups understand issues here which in turn can help local and foreign groups link up.

Jane – sounds like a Wiki, like Wikipedia. Centralized, but loose

Jane, Keli talked about ‘corporate B’ models where companies seek to make money, but that’s not the first or only priority

Neesha and Jason talked about what has happened with taxes on cigarettes as a model for getting companies to internalize environmental costs

主題 Topic Name: “大問題”的下一步是甚麼？該做甚麼？ What should the Big Question do after this event?
召集人 Convenor: Keli Yen 顏克莉
參與人員 Participants: Steve Huang, Iverson Lin, Jason Hsu, Kevin Peng, Eric Tsai, Sylvia Chi, Michael Boyden, Marian Angele, eShow
討論內容 Insights:
•    Marian: there should be a communication center, like Craigslist that aggregates information in a common space.
•    Jason: We are creating an internet feature called MyBQ that will connect people and match ideas to resources to people and their skill sets together.  You can keep in touch with the people from the conference through this website.
•    eShow: So are you a nonprofit or a social enterprise?
•    Jason: For profit social enterprise.
•    Steve: sustainability is an important tissue.  This returns to the original mission and value: utilizing dialogue to generate projects.  Therefore it’s important to evaluate thoroughly this conference & integrate feedback to create something tangible and replicable form this.  For example others can create BQ conference in other parts of the world.
•    Iverson: you should make BQ into a packaged brand.  So that you can provide direct servicees to a company.  And effectively identify to a company that BQ will increase their productivity and ROI, then therefore the company will pay BQ a portion of their profits happily.
•    Eric: BQ can become a brand like discovery channel is.  We as a team can identify issues and focus on resolving them throughout the year and thus become a project development organization.
•    Marian: So then the “problems” would need to be small and manageable.  You could export problem solving models.
•    Eric: We can identify “problems” through our website and conferencing activities.
•    Michael Boyden: How do you capture the value you’ve created through the conference?  How then do you follow-up and make things happen after the conference?  How do you make sure the people involved are actually capable of making change?
•    Sylvia: So essentially people come to you with a question and BQ sources the means to resolve it?
•    Michael: This is utilizing the collective wisdom.

討論內容 Insights:
•    Emily: 引導能幫助人力量出來, 但知道的人不多
•    Kid:  let us know what the facilitating is!
•    Emily: 引導非teaching, 而是引發人內心深處的想法, 找到想要的, 可以了解自己為何無法達到夢想, 能力, 資源, 卡住在哪裡即可著手.

•    Emily: 我相信引導, 但似乎沒有很多人了解, 很可惜.

•    Kid: 將自己的經驗表達, 助人了解, 從事業務人員的公司, 本身在行銷規劃, 置入性行銷, 引導, 說服, 最基本要分享你被引導的改變.
•    Emily: 當時開始接觸, 大學畢業工作三年後, 出國唸書, 不知自己要做什麼, 轉職, 先去了再說, 開始接觸引導, 我覺得有人在聽我講話, 但在那個當下, 我自己很開心, 沒有對未來仍有焦慮, 然後就走向引導這條路, 看到有人因引導的過程, 能有所改變, 令我感動.  例如: 有人感情問題, 持續兩年, 在引導過程中, 在那一個小時, 她覺得找到答案, 下週就不在談論這問題, 想法改變了.
•    延倫: 引導像心理諮商嗎?
•    Bernard: 因為分享嗎?
•    Emily: 引導是問問題, 得到一個回饋, 某一句話, 而觸動她.
•    Johnson: 感謝這個美好的環境, 讓被引導者做最好的思考, 我常對很多事有自己的答案, 焦點放在被引導者身上.
•    Kim: 不要把別人的意思, 當成是我的意思.  不要把自己的意思, 當成別人的意思.
•    五毛: 引導的本質, 相信答案在對方身上.
•    Kim: 引導就是比對方更相信他能做到.
•    Emily: 引導是在發光.

主題 Topic Name: 如何改變台灣的教育制度—離考試領導教學？ How to change Taiwan’s education system to get away from exam/leader teaching system?
討論內容 Insights:
•    台灣學生的表達能力，語言缺乏；台灣學生缺乏膽量上台演說表達；需從小便培養孩子思考表達能力。
•    仍將孩童送往國外學習表達思考能力。但卻有適應問題，於父母情感聯問題
•    每國教育哪有利弊。
•    國中破壞孩子才藝思考能力；因為學生主意而不切實際；身為師長看有心改變教育體制卻無能為力源想引民間團體力量。政府取消考試制度。
•    常考試取消；如丹麥，便沒有考試；卻能使社會運作自如。而法律需考某些科自以決定組和。不需要學習不必要。
•    目前是人文基礎的培養，不可則減。
•    史地科木可以電影。
•    孩子板逆於考試制度有關；因共精力充卻無處發電；加再上埠善唸書，能力又一直被否定，於是更加板逆。
•    找出孩子的興趣，其持質；教育只為培前5％的學生，而義後面95％的學生：必須根孩子知道學習的需求。
•    只給孩子DVD；而非又電視， 因孩子尚未有選擇能力。
•    國文教學應給孩子發表對論能力；而非增加其默公能力。
•    教育改革是一條很長遠的路。
•    給予空間。

主題 Topic Name: Link Our World!  如何連接彼此的好處當人們彼此結後，我們可以做甚麼？，ex:BQ對話活動。
召集人 Convenor: 陳怡秀
參與人員 Participants: Keli Yen, 陳怡秀，林志學， 業先生
討論內容 Insights:
•    eShow: How does action continue 下去following the connections made from a platform and/or event?  Importance is in Brand identity & idea.  How to be competitive?  (as a social enterprise?) How to truly optimize use of the internet as an integral part of an SE businesss & revenue model?
•    業先生：Traffic & participation.  Regarding the internet, it often seems very easy to “innovate” based on an idea.  But in reality it’s quite difficult.  I find that in the States there’s more professional support for this sort of thing, and less in Taiwan.  And Taiwan’s market is too small.  Taiwan lacks institutional systems to replicate models made in the States.  Regarding BQ, you need ot understand what’s attracting peoplee.  How to avoid the dissipation of networking value: an organization like BQ needs to be very-very clear about what their VALUE is.  Start with articulating a mission statement that will immediately enroll peoplee and have them know what you are, and what you aren’t.

0xA is a band not made out of people, but objects and patches. Snippets of codes that bleeps and blinks are added and modified in the online repository, where it all began. As the repository grew, 0xA evolves with it. Aymeric Mansoux and Chun Lee have been the main contributor to 0xA since 2006, They have performed 0xA across Europe in places like galleries, clubs and festivals.

Participation in The Big Question has been an education in teamwork for me as I gradually witness the unfolding possibilities when people are aligned by a common mission.  In this process I was surprised to see the efforts, capabilities & fruits of our individual labor amplified much larger when leveraged through a team rather than if we had each pursued the goal alone.

I came to The Big Question after trying to do a lot of things on my own.  Left to my own devices, my personal failings, achilles heels, limited knowledge and narrowness of perception would inevitably get the better of me.

To develop an idea into a tangible product demands many types of skill sets, commitment and downright running around…  Surely, I would have crash and burned long ago if I’d tried this by myself, and certainly the end result would be nowhere like it is today: a mixture of flavors where each participant’s contribution is inextricable from the rest.

Beyond the direct benefits of the added resources of a group, working in collaboration with others continually humbles.  When confronted with strong opinions, when do you step aside and give others the spotlight?  In the process I’ve experimented with how to fit better with others: discovering my core capacities, and the areas I’d best not fight for the lead on. 

A deeper sense of confidence arises because I simply trust the team.  I’ve been “wow’ed” by each teammate and I know I’ll be wowed again & again in ways always beyond my imagination & expectation.  That’s what’s so exciting about this team; the ideas born from outside my own mind stretch & challenge my imagination and creativity in shapes & sizes never before experienced.

This is my BQ MBA.  The outcome of which is more than any certificate could offer, instead it is an expansiveness of rich possibilities and hope.  I’m excited to be on this journey.  And although working with others continually brings up new challenges; the joys, the creativity of camaraderie and the fruits of the adventure is a gift each and every day.
