From Strategic Conversation to Wise Action to Social Change
-
The Art of Hosting and Convening Conversations is a combined experiential training, learning lab and retreat that is being practiced in sustainability, grassroots community building, educational reform and other social change and democracy movements around the world. It provides a space where we can connect to what matters most, discover what is possible, and inspire co-creation. It is a space where leaders, groups and communities can have meaningful conversations about systemic change – conversations that lead to wise action.
For this Art of Hosting we invite
· participation from the educational, corporate, social, cultural and environmental sectors to join in meaningful conversations that lead to wise action.
· leaders from the New York and Global Community who want to promote collective creativity and intelligence in order to achieve better cooperation and results.
· practitioners who would like to join a growing, global learning community.
Our hosting team, Toke Moeller (Denmark), Teresa Posakony (Seattle, USA), Tenneson Woolf (Utah, USA), and the New York City Art of Hosting Practitioners Group — Nancy Fritsche Eagan, Kelly McGowan, Vivian Vazquez, Lisa Caswell, Robert Clark, Cynthia Wiggins, and Martin Siesta — welcomes you.
