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.

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

Understanding the system of yourself, along with seeing deeper the systems around you, is an outcome of the workshop which sets you on a new learning journey.

A series of ideas and techniques to collaboratively improve a system.

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

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.

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.

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

Energizing, safe environment.  You can work with 13 separate partners in 2 days.

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.

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.

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.

Great tips on problem visualization techniques.

Superb facilitation.

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

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.

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 😉
