 There are so many acronyms these days… so what is a P.A.T.H.? Very simply put – a path that you create with a facilitator that leads you to your chosen future. It represents a simple planning process called Planning Alternative Tomorrows with Hope, developed by Marsha Forrest, John O’Brien and Jack Pearpoint, and in the 1990’s in Toronto. I was very fortunate to be trained by Rosanna von Sacken from Canada as she facilitated me virtually through my P.A.T.H.
 Every task we undertake in the workplace fits into a process – whether we are aware of this or not. These workplace processes impact on both agency participants/clients, staff and the agency’s own internal workings, for example, finance, human resources and administration. As soon as more than one organisation is involved with a participant, there are across agency processes involved (formal as in a protocol/partnership, or informal).

 Recently I had the great privilege of being invited to facilitate a leadership team through their team building workshops.
 NAIDOC Week is a time to celebrate First Nations people's culture and connection to Country and waters.
 During National Reconciliation Week (27 May-3 June 2022), we all need to remember that every time we gather, we meet on Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island Lands. In our genuine acknowledgement of Country, we show that we know and recognise that we are on First Nations Lands.
