What is SOL?
We organize conferences and events around the world to help people join the growing movement to use Solutions Focused ideas at work, in consulting, managing, training, HR practice, strategic planning, performance management, team building and organizational development. The first conference was in February 2002 in Bristol, UK, hosted by Bristol Solutions Group.
SOL is not a membership organization. You join in by participating in SOL events, and/or joining the SOL email discussion group listserver. SOL is run voluntarily by an international steering group. The group meets at SOL International Conferences - if you are interested in getting involved, come to a conference, or contact one of the group in advance.
Anyone is free to organize an event under the SOL banner, as long as it is in line with the SOL Charter and has the support of the international steering group. If you have an idea for an event, whether it be geographically based (ie a national or regional event) or subject-matter oriented (focusing on a particular application of solution focused work), get in touch with any member of the steering group.
