_The Listening Circle: Leading a transformational practice in life and
work_
_How are we listening to each other, the world, and ourselves? _
_How might this affect our action and relationships?_
This 3-day training will teach you how to facilitate a listening
circle practice at home, work, and within a community. A deep
listening practice strengthens relationships and supports any
individual or group working with transition and change.
The Listening Circle reveals the power of story to connect us to each
other, our common humanity, and ourselves. It is this connection that
is the foundation for resilience — our ability to move with the ups
and downs of life and circumstances we cannot control.
In this practice, we create the intention to listen and speak from our
whole selves - not just our heads.
We expand awareness into how we listen, hear, and communicate to
ourselves, to each other and to the world with discernment, respect
and care.
What does this mean for the decisions we are making? The
transformation we want to create?
Together we will create a place free from dogma, right answers, or
convincing each other of our opinions.
We will learn the conditions from which this space can be created and
the nuances of a practice that can support it in your lives – both
personally and professionally.
Join us as we practice deep listening, learn how to facilitate
listening circles, initiate transformation, and share the stories of
our lives.
THE PROGRAM
_“This is a different way of thinking about human
beings…..Individuals aren't really individuals. They're more like
musicians in a jazz quartet, forming a web of unconscious actions and
reactions to complement others in the group. You don't look at the
informational content of the messages; you look at patterns that show
how the message is being sent. Those patterns contain many signals
that tell us about the relationship and what's really going on beneath
the surface.” _
