Liberating Structures
Immersion Workshop
A virtual immersion to boost your facilitation practice
November 4, 11, 18 and 25
Live sessions from 9:00am to 12:00pm PST
Join us to experience, and learn-by-doing, powerful facilitation strategies to promote active and effective participation in groups of any size
With Liberating Structures it is possible to awaken a participative and agile behaviour in meetings, planning sessions, classrooms or workshops. Liberating Structures productively disrupt conventional patterns in how we work together. They change dramatically the way results are generated without expensive investments, complicated training, or dramatic shifts in organizational structures.
🤔 What is an Immersion?
Maybe the best way to describe an Immersion is visualizing yourself learning a new language, living for a period of time in a new country. It would be an immersive experience, which means intense, deep and sometimes, discombobulating...😜
In an Immersion we experience the Liberating Structures at all times, structuring all interactions with the group.
» We do not talk about, we experience the Liberating Structures. This is when you learn the most...🤩
» We look behind the scenes. And then confirm how simple and powerful they are...🤔
» We reflect on results and discuss how to apply LS in different contexts. A rich and delightful conversation...😀
👨💻👩💻 Virtual Immersion?
This will be our 52nd Immersion! During the pandemic, we re-designed our 2-day in-person workshop into 4 dynamic and interactive online sessions, each lasting 3 hours, via Zoom. This format allows a deep dive into the world of Liberating Structures in a consistent learning experience. The virtual interaction becomes also a stepping stone to enhancing your in-person facilitation skills.
