`Alive with Possibility` - a Movie-awareNet-Day on Youth Day 2011

The phrase 'Alive with Possibility' is as common these days as the phrase 'take it to the next level'. But do we really know how to interpret these?

Symphonia, an Organisational Change practice has partnered with the VSA and has sent an exciting documentary called “Alive with Possibility” featuring world renowned leadership experts Ben & Roz Zander. It is endorsed by Desmond Tutu and Wendy Ackerman (pictures above).

The documentary, that awareNet is going to show on Youth Day (June 16th), has the intention of reminding South Africans that this country has many possibilities. Are we aware of this? Too many stories make that fact faint.

The document is to remind us that it is us, South Africans that detemine the direction we take. Remember, when two roads diverge in the wood it will always be the one less travelled by that will make the difference.

Below, you will find written expectations and reactions of the awareNet uers to the documentary. All attending learners received an Alive with Possibility-Badge on their profile page.

All the photographs that were taken on that day can be found in the Gallery called Youth Day 2011.

We filmed short movies containing spontaneous reactions of the learners alter watching the documentary. They can be found in the Video Gallery Alive with Possibility. Some of them were also uploaded onto YouTube.
