GUDERIC'H SIGNAL STAR, WEDNESDAY, Ai'ttll, 8, 1987 onference sh w on the future of work to be aired on TVO Wednesday, April 2 For the past 55 years, some of the brightest and most ,concerned people from Canada and abroad have gathered each summer in a quiet lakeside setting in Geneva Park, Lake Couchiching,•The event - the Couchiching Conference, a forum to discuss issues vital to us all. This past August, the topic was the future of work: how we'll pass our days in the decades to come. The keynote speaker was interna- tional cybernetics consultant and author Stafford Beer. On Wednesday, April 29 at 9:00 p.m., viewers canshare the conference highlights and insights, as well as reactions from astute panelists. The Couchiching C'on- ferepce: The• Future of Work, a two-hour special, looks at work's impact on us as in- dividuals and as a society. The program will present several conference addresses divided thematically into three sections 1, as well as panel discussions arising from these ideas, hosted by TVO,moderator Mike tvic>,vianus. Stafford Beer will present the introduc- tory address, offering his vision of -work in the future -- when there will actually be less work. Materialism is over, he claims: we must shift to a more "spiritual paradigm." The second panel features speakers Robert A. Ferchat, president of Northern Telecom Canada Limited, and Laurell Rit- chie, vice-president of the Confederation of Canadian Unions. Ferchat says we• must grasp the opportunities inherent in technology and thereby become winners -.or the "techno-elite" ••-- in our increasingly competitive society. Ritchie, whose address follows, opposes this approach, warning of the costs of the competitive model. . The final group of speakers -discuss the psychological aspects of work, and the rela- tionship to self-image. Paesenters in this section are Dr. Vivan Rakoff, director, Clarke Institute of Psychiatry; June Callwood, doted journalist, feminist, and TV \% it uruadcastei . unu author Ttntuthy E'ufiiley, whose works include The Wars and Famous last Words.

In the final segment, all five studio panelists, joined by Stafford Beer, Will par- ticipate in a special presentation titled "Beyond ('ouchiching," in whit•h they will examine visions of work in the future, and discuss how w•e can hest prepare for these -changes.
