ARS is pleased to announce a new program designed specifically for practitionersthe Regional Stewardship Boot Camp. The Boot Camp is an intensive, one-day session and 6 months of follow-up coaching aimed at showing participants how to launch a successful regional stewardship initiative in their region. Participants will learn how other regions got started, then design a ?Regional Stewardship Start-Up Plan? for implementation in their own region.
The Boot Camp is designed for individuals who are generally familiar with the concepts and practice of regional stewardship, and who want to initiate a regional stewardship initiative of some kind in their region based on best practices.
The first Boot Camp will kick off on Wednesday, May 4, 2005, in Washington, D.C., in conjunction with the Spring National Forum on Regional Stewardship. Facilitators include Douglas Henton & John Melville, Founders of Collaborative Economics, and John Parr, President & CEO of ARS. The Boot Camp Fee includes 6 months of follow-up coaching and the opportunity for peer review of your start-up plan at the next ARS Forum in November 2005. Each participant will receive a Regional Stewardship Start-Up Workbook and electronic template for designing their own start-up plan.
