Working with ACT 
Dear Rachel and Bob, my name is Juan Jacobo Sarmiento, I am an organizational consultant and a certified coach, I am a Colombian citizen and a i live in Bogotá. Since I attended a conference with Kelly G. Wilson in the Los Andes University, in January of this year, I have been investigating and enriching my knowledge about Psychological Flexibility. I really like “ACT at the workplace” methodology, it appears powerful to me. I am convinced that it can produce strong systemic and evolutionary changes in people and organizations. It can also make people´s lifes healthier and more satisfactory, and definitively happier.
I have become a regular reader of your publications. I really appreciate the work you do and I want to thank you both for getting all this valuable information available to the public.
Sorry is Rob !!!
Dear Juan,
I quite like the name Bob and might stick with it! Thank you for getting in touch. Our blog exists for people like you. Our aim is to take contextual behavioural science into the workplace, to make organisations work better – for themselves, for the staff, stakeholders and for the planet. We are convinced, like you, that we can produce “strong systemic and evolutionary changes in people and organizations” and we think that psychological flexibility is key to this.
So let me end with a request and a challenge. My request is that you keep reading, keep commenting and keep thinking about how these ideas apply to your work. The challenge is to help us develop by questioning us, asking for information about particular topics important to you and contributing to the site with your own blog posts.
Could you be willing to extend our reach still further? Could your voice help bring ACT to the workplace in Colombia?
with warm regards,
Rob
