Online Workshop: Whole Person Process FacilitationOctober 25, 26 and 29, 2020 “Learn to strengthen the muscle of your organization to work from the potential of the Whole Person, individually and collectively.” Whole Person Process Facilitation (WPPF) is the name given to a highly dynamic, participative meeting methodology designed to integrate the wisdom of the group as well the individual, during the meeting. WPPF delivers powerful short and long term results from meetings. Energy, ideas, and discussion from meetings are transformed into constructive action, with participants embracing responsibility and leadership around the topic at hand, be that a product, concept, question or strategy. In the longer term, by using the WPPF meeting methodology, team members become increasingly more engaged, creative and open. This engenders resilience among people and teams in dealing with the dynamics of change from both within and outside organizations. In this 3 day training, you will learn how to use meetings as a seriously effective way to utilize all the human capacity in an organization. You will discover not only how to prepare, run and follow up on meetings in a new way, but will also learn to build your own capacity to run a WPPF meeting. |
