In this 3-day "Art of Hosting Conversations that Matter" training, sometimes called "participatory leadership", you'll learn and practice models, methodologies, and skills designed to enliven the potential of any engagement, whether in a team or across sectors. You'll have the opportunity to practice “hosting conversations” using dialogue-based methodologies that are designed for working with complex challenges. These methods help to access the collective intelligence of a group so that new solutions can be discovered in truly collaborative ways. This practice recognizes strategic dialogue as a driver for collaboration, development, and change.

How is the art of hosting different?“I have been facilitating groups for over 30 years, but the Art of Hosting provided a new approach to engaging people around their most cherished values and working together for the common good.” |
