The Pollyanna Principles

The Ends:

# 1

We accomplish what we hold ourselves accountable for.

# 2

Each and every one of us is creating the future, every day, whether we do so consciously or not.

The Means:

# 3

Everyone and everything is interconnected and interdependent, whether we acknowledge that or not.

# 4

“Being the change we want to see” means walking the talk of our values.

# 5

Strength builds upon our strengths, not our weaknesses.

# 6

Individuals will go where systems lead them.

If the agenda is pre-set it isn’t an unconference! - via unconference.net

I am not saying you can’t “pre-plan anything” or be “unorganized”.
* You could have a keynote speaker to open or close your day that is planned ahead. (like the closing of the first day of Mashup Camp 1 had Peter Hirshburg give the BEST speech ever on the history of computer marketing - it was educational and very funny)
* You could know you are going to do a world cafe to close a day about a certain topic.
* You should have some on ramp material with several speakers to open your multi-day event about a technical topic (as we do at the Interenet Identity Workshop).
* You can decide your speed geeking is going to happen after lunch on the 2nd day.
* You can ask everyone who registers what they want to present about or hope to learn about and then post all of that back to potential attendees.
