Which workshop is the best for you?
We give you a lot of options. Basically, no matter what your situation is we have a way you, and the people you want to share learning to listen with, can have that experience. Below we have explained some of those options.
All workshops begin by discussing by what your specific needs are. If we are unable to talk with your group beforehand, we learn about people’s needs during our introductions. If there is a group of people, we get as much input from as many people as possible about what the specific dynamics are in their job or situation that need addressing. Then we pull from our bag of tools to see what best fits your needs.
