This course is about helping individuals, teams, and organizations become more effective. The exercises and discussion with students and instructors let you personalize the material.

No powerpoint. Just engagement and collaboration.

A wonderful experiment-driven experience in understanding social interactions and how to effectively influence their outcome.

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

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

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.

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 😉 

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’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.

It provides both insights and specific tools for making effective change – within an organization as well as within one’s self.

Great tips on problem visualization techniques.

Superb facilitation.
