What an enthusiastic response we received when we announced to Haydn Shaw that his book was selected for our campaign!  He was gracious and enthusiastic.  He explained that he has been working in the field of conflict resolution for many decades ... like so many of us.  He is honored that we selected Sticking Points: How to Get 4 Generations Working Together in the 12 Places They Come Apart.  Also, he is pleased that we will distribute over 220 copies through our outreach in Colorado.

I have started the book and find it wonderfully readable and very enlightening. Reading about the "ghost stories" and experiences that underlie people's choices, reactions and opinions about what is right, important, appropriate, caring, etc. is helping me understand, and perhaps accept, behaviors that make no sense to me.  Learning that there are actually subsets of Boomers, for example, has addressed persistent and bothersome questions I have had about differences in a group that is too often inaccurately described in one broad stroke.  Being born in 1945 leaves me outside the descriptive years for any of the generations.  I felt a bit lost, until now.

We are also grateful to Haydn Shaw for a generous and deeply discounted price, making it possible for us to distribute books more freely and keep funds available for other outreach efforts.  We pay close attention to carefully leveraging contributions so we can best "inspire constructive problem solving in Colorado" (our mission).

Thank you, Haydn Shaw!  We welcome you to the campaign and are grateful for you're your informative and entertaining book.

Looking forward to the remainder of the book.  I would love to hear from others about their new intergenerational insights and discoveries.
