THINK TANK UMBRIA 2010
Todi
Palazzo del Vignola
25 - 26 Novembre 2K10
Think Tanks (o serbatoi di pensiero) sono dei seminari interattivi che hanno l’obiettivo di individuare eventi non ancora venuti in essere e definire scenari futuri.
La premessa di base di una Think Tank e’ quella di individuare gli eventi (o forze) futuri che avranno un impatto profondo su destinazioni turistiche ed organizzazioni che offrono servizi ai turisti.
Nel Think Tank Umbria 2010, gli obiettivi da raggiungere sono quattro:
a.Identificazione delle forze che influenzeranno il settore turismo
b.Stimare l’impatto ed il timing delle forze al punto a.
c.Creare metodi competitivi che si basino esclusivamente sull’analisi dei punti a. e b.
d.Individuare le nuove competenze di base che saranno necessarie per sviluppare i metodi competitivi di cui al punto c.
Al fine di raggiungere gli obiettivi di cui sopra, i partecipanti sono stati selezionati non solamente in qualita’ di rappresentanti del settore ma anche e soprattutto di altri settori ed organizzazioni che influenzano l’esperienza del viaggiatore e di coloro che provvedono a fornire i servizi al viaggiatore.
Ad esempio, esperti in tecnologia, sicurezza, trasporti, protezione ambientale, giornalisti ed altri.
I partecipanti sono stati selezionati in quanto protagonisti nel loro settore di competenza e riconosciuti come tali da colleghi e/o dai media.
L’analisi riguarda l’individuazione delle forze piu’ impattanti provenienti dai seguenti settori di riferimento:
ecologico
economico-politico
socio-culturale
tecnologico
I partecipanti alla sessione plenaria sono stati distribuiti ai vari tavoli per lavorare nella sessione di gruppo sul primo settore di riferimento, quello ecologico.
Al termine del tempo allocato per i lavori di gruppo, si è tornati in sessione plenaria per ascoltare le brevi presentazioni dei risultati ottenuti dai rappresentanti di gruppo.
Al termine dell’ultima presentazione si è proceduto al voto dei risultati.
Alla ripresa dei lavori dopo il break, il Prof. Sandro Formica ha presentato i risultati delle ultime votazioni ed ha invitato i partecipanti a lavorare di nuovo nella sessione di gruppo per discutere gli altri settori di riferimento, seguendo la medesima procedura di cui sopra.
Ogni qualvolta i partecipanti si sono riuniti per iniziare il lavoro di gruppo, hanno cambiato tavolo, interagendo con partecipanti nuovi.
Inoltre, partecipanti rappresentanti uno o due settori o competenze non sono stati posizionati nello stesso tavolo.
Quest’aspetto specifico della metodologia e’ particolarmente importante per stimolare le idee, la creativita’ e l’interattivita’ tra i partecipanti.
Gli obiettivi della seconda giornata sono quelli riportati ai punti c. e d. (vedi sopra).
A parte qualche dettaglio, il format della seconda giornata e’ identico a quello del giorno precedente.
Al termine dell’evento c'è stata una sessione conclusiva durante la quale i partecipanti sono stati in grado di verificare l’allineamento tra:
(a) le forze future che guideranno il cambiamento
(b) i metodi competitivi sviluppati
(c) le nuove competenze di base.
“Remember, happiness doesn't depend upon who you are or what you have; it depends solely upon what you think. So start each day by thinking of all the things you have to be thankful for. Your future will depend very largely on the thoughts you think today. So think thoughts of hope and confidence and love and success.”
― Dale Carnegie
At Stanford University, the Cantor Arts Center's collection of Rodin bronzes is among the largest in the world. The majority of the collection occupies three ground-floor galleries. Approximately 170 works by Rodin are on view inside the Center, mostly cast bronze, but also works in wax, plaster, and terra cotta.
The subject of schizophrenia came up in a recent Flickr discussion.
'A breakdown in the relation between thought, emotion, and behavior, leading to faulty perception, inappropriate actions and feelings, withdrawal from reality and personal relationships into fantasy and delusion, and a sense of mental fragmentation'. That's a dictionary definition of schizophrenia. I read it as a comment on our times.
I identify with the last bit of the quote, I feel a sense of mental fragmentation. This much I observe around me: 'A breakdown in the relation between thought, emotion, and behavior, leading to faulty perception, inappropriate actions and feelings, withdrawal from reality and personal relationships into fantasy and delusion . . . ‘. Think bankers, think government, think wars we don’t want, think fat cat bail-outs, think spin and spin doctors, etc, etc, etc..
I’ve recently written in my Flickr profile: ‘I've done my three score years and ten, so now it's playtime’. My idea was to go out, look around me, take a few photographs and come home to play with them in my metaphorical garden shed (aka my iMac) . . . but then I started to think . . .
I'm not schizophrenic, but to cope with the world around me I need to develop another persona. ‘Garden Shed Tom’ (^Tom) wants to see the world as a happy place full of light and hope, but there is another me who can’t ignore the reality of what I see around me . . . Grumpy Old Tom.
Maybe I’ll identify my grumpy old man postings with an appropriate tag. Maybe I’ll even develop a few Grumpy Old Man Projects. Meanwhile I’m going to take time out to think.
"Stop, Look, Listen, Think" is the safety message for crossing roads safely, presented in a show for the Active School Travel program, at the Monday morning school assembly. I was lucky to be there - I hadn't planned to stay. I hadn't planned to sketch either, but the performers were so vivid and energetic I couldn't resist, especially upon spying "Roadstar" in his absolutely comedic hooped shirt and fluorescent orange platform sneakers, socks and hat, matching the safety cones (a.k.a. witches' hats) on stage. Gave in and broke out my sketch kit halfway through the performance, then rushed to get it all down. After assembly I chatted to them and realised that "Green" had probably been my circus aerials instructor a few years ago!
Just myself lightly textured. Thanks go to muffett and Texture Time for the use of their textures. Textures are as follows;

I think this dealership last operated as Paul Miller Volkswagen, but it was formerly known as Barry-Palmer (I think) and then Noonan Motors. Located on Kings Highway (US Route 1) in Fairfield.
You think it's such a sad thing
When you see a fallen king
Then you find out they are only
Princes to begin with
Everybody has to chose
Whether they will win or loose

I think this may be a female Maratus. I have been so fixated on bees and plants I have yet to spy a male Maratus. Hope to rectify this soon! [Kurrajong/Colo area, NSW]
One of five Think Coffee shops in Manhattan (this one's on 4th Avenue). They go along with five others in South Korea.
