Fireside Chat
Powerful / Pragmatic / Contemplation / Experiential Learning
Like a fireside chat / mountain retreat with Esther & Don.
Learning with the best of the best.
Three days to explore how YOU can learn to become a better coach.
Engage in systems thinking
An opportunity to learn and experience practices and methods in systems thinking.
Very good way to become more helpful to organizations.
Lots of hands-on exercises that help you see and depict a very complex organizational situation in systematic metaphors.
It provides both insights and specific tools for making effective change – within an organization as well as within one’s self.
It was such an intimate setting and a great collaborative learning experience.
A great mix of theory and practice. Exercises use each attendee’s issues and contest, leading to real-life changes and actions which are easily begun.
If you have a chance to participate in Esther and Don’s workshops, do not hesitate and go for it. The style of learning throughout the workshop was amazing with its simplicity yet undoubtedly difficult to establish in such short period of time that two days gives us. The setup of the physical space not as much as the emotional comfort that their approach just emitted on its own. They have set up the emotional space for us to be as open as possible and vulnerable yet at the same time have the feeling of safety. I have not experienced that style of knowledge sharing/exchange in a long time. So much information was shared and exchanged without the feeling of material heavy session. It was all done through carefully thought out exercises that almost seemed to mask that this was learning and it didn’t feel like a torrent of data poured on my head, even that it was 😉
Coaching Beyond the Team was amazing! Esther and Don gave real experiences and tools that are immediately relevant and valuable.
This workshop teaches a framework for change and gives you experience in using that framework to solve real problems in real organizations.
Adjust after you understand
Learn a process framework for analyzing a problem, the players, and the factors that describe the context. Then you can consider how you might experiment with adjusting the system after you understand it.
Better understand the system
It helped me better understand the system I work in, and gave me a plethora of tools I can bring back to my organization to make improvements in the system.
A hands-on workshop with brilliant facilitators / teachers that gives you insight and courage about how to approach your challenges.
An introduction to the steps in a meaningful dance: center, enter, turn. Practice in pairs learning the routine and building anticipation of dancing to the music of your org.
It is very practical – not much theory. Low tempo with time for reflection (a good thing). It actually about coaching in the team and outside the team.
