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 😉 

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

The workshop will introduce a bunch of useful tools when you are in the position of implementing a change in an org.

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

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.

Sometimes (most times) the problems we face are multi-faceted and complex. The workshop gives tools to pause & observe, analyze the system & determine what experiments you want to take.

This workshop is a true taste of what coaching looks like in an organization. The material is timely and relevant.

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.

A very intense two days, from which you will come away with new tools & insights you can apply in the real world to coach beyond the team.

Very good way to become more helpful to organizations.

It’s great if you’re feeling like you’re stuck. The class gives you some tools to look at a problem in different ways that lead to new insights and a confidence that there are things you can do to be useful.

Lots of hands-on exercises that help you see and depict a very complex organizational situation in systematic metaphors.

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

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.

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

This workshop teaches a framework for change and gives you experience in using that framework to solve real problems in real organizations.
