It was such an intimate setting and a great collaborative learning experience.

Taking a systems view to complex organization problems (without going to crazy).

Nice way to learn about change together with other interesting people.

Mentally challenging, a lot of great material organized very well.

Instruction on tools that can be used to help teams and others throughout the organization see the big picture more clearly and how things affect the big picture.

An opportunity to learn and experience practices and methods in systems thinking.

Years of research in complex fields distilled into an applicable set of principles and toolkits. This workshop will allow you to understand any organization and put in place the work to improve it.

Excellent for expanding your tool box. Lots of practical experience with using the models and tools.

Super valuable if you want to understand and influence the organization you work in!

Very good way to become more helpful to organizations.

Learn how to prepare yourself to make changes to a system effectively.

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 😉 

Highly interactive and engaging activities followed by thought-provking conversations.

We are all at sea in a fleet without a map. Now you will see this situation more clearly and how to help navigate.

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.

No powerpoint. Just engagement and collaboration.
