Our Training Courses

What it is: An introduction to the key elements of Collaborative Innovation—a process model and set of tools that enable leaders to effectively lead impactful change within a group of diverse stakeholders across different sectors. This is a fast-paced, immersive—and at times, challenging—dive into the “Four Agendas” of Collaborative Innovation: connecting, aligning, learning, and making.

Step into the process of collaborative innovation with our immersive and highly experiential facilitation-focused workshop. Designed for leaders eager to implement and facilitate powerful collaborative processes within their own networks, this course goes beyond theory, providing you with practical tools and hands-on experience. 

You will learn essential meeting planning, facilitation, and leadership practices that help diverse groups move from goal setting to achieving tangible outcomes together. Whether you're working virtually or in-person, our methods are adaptable to any environment and emphasize navigating conflicts, confusion, and uncertainties that arise during collaboration.

What it is: In a world of increasing complexity, our usual cognitive approaches to understanding and shifting systems often fall short. While diagrams, frameworks, and methodical analysis can provide helpful insight, they can create an illusion of certainty where none exists. Many change initiatives stall not because of a lack of understanding, but because of our tendency to over-rely on cognitive approaches while undervaluing other ways of knowing. 

This workshop explores how we can integrate cognitive and non-rational ways of knowing—somatic, intuitive, and feeling—to engage more effectively with complex systems. Through experiential learning, stories, and guided practice, you will develop your capacity to navigate complexity using multiple ways of knowing, leading to more nuanced, effective, and human change work.

What it is: In today’s world, fostering genuine collaboration is more than just bringing people together; it’s about building authentic alignment and trust among diverse people. Creating innovative solutions requires more than just getting everyone to agree on the surface. Real ownership and meaningful alignment from all parties are crucial, especially when emotions are high and the stakes are even higher. In "Leveraging Creative Tensions," you'll gain hands-on experience and learn proven methods for recognizing, mapping, and harnessing the diverse values and perspectives within your team. This course turns conflict and polarization into genuine alignment and productive collaboration.

What it is: Effective leadership goes beyond traditional management skills. It requires a deep understanding of both emotional and cultural intelligence to navigate complex challenges and cultivate meaningful change. "Cultural and Emotional Wealth & Well-Being for Leaders and Teams" is an interactive workshop designed to expand your awareness-based leadership skills. Through this course, you will learn to measure, grow, and leverage emotional and cultural intelligence to enhance both individual and organizationa agility. This workshop equips you with the capabilities and tools needed to foster equity, inclusion, and collaborative solutions.
