Creating Workplaces Where People Thrive (CWWPT) - 6-day intensive workshop

Our signature event, this six-day intensive workshop invites participants to explore and experience what is unique about "living organizations." Multiple threads are woven together--a business simulation, somatic exercises, large group sessions, small affinity groups, a support team that includes past participants, percussion creations, community meetings, a "harvest celebration"--to create a visceral "whole being" learning experience. Designed for business owners, managers and organizational consultants, this workshop gives a living example of a transformation that is possible within our organizations ... and within ourselves.
