Housekeeping
These are some general notes that it would be good for you to be familiar with prior to attending any one of the webinars.Asking Questions
I prefer that you ask questions as they arise. Your questions are posted on my screen and others won't get to see them until I respond to them.
The attendee panel which should up in the upper right of your screen once the webinar is initiated is where you ask questions. The little white arrow in the orange rectangle opens and closes the panel on the right.
If you have questions after the session please post them to the Systemic Perspective - Evolving Thoughts discussion in the Systems Thinking World discussion group on LinkedIn.
Webinar Outline
The webinar outline, done in Comapping, you see me refer to during the session is actually on the discussion tab for this page.
Can't Hear the Presenter
If you can't hear the presenter there is like to be a problem with your system and you can seek assistance at the GoToWebinar Support Site.
Displayed Screen Cast
The screen cast is done in 1280 x 720 and may be a bit too large for some laptops. While GoToWebinar will shrink the screen cast to fit your screen it wraps it in a window as depicted in the figure below.
If you click on Zoom drop down you can select the Full Screen option which will give you the maximum display possible on your system.
Donations
The webinars are free though it's a lot like Public TV. While I don't need to get paid to present these webinars there are overhead expenses associated with Systems Thinking World that have to get paid. As such if you find the sessions of value a domain via PayPal or Google would be greatly appreciated. Note that for those of you in the US donations are tax deductible as Systems Thinking World is a registered 501(c)3 corporation.
There are also a set of associated Kindle eBooks that may be purchased from Amazon.com. Systems Thinking World receives 70% of the purchase price of these books. And if your comment is that you don't have a Kindle; You don't need one. Amazon.com has a set of Free Kindle Reading Apps that you can download an install on your Mac, PC, Smartphone, etc.
Recordings
Wevinars are recorded and posted to the Systems Thinking World Channel. It is advised that you subscribe to this channel to receive updates when new videos are posted. Links are also placed in the webinar outline and in the webinar page developed for that particular webinar.
