Chris Corrigan
Bowen Island Canada

I am a facilitator of conversation in the service of emergence. My business is supporting invitation: the invitation to collaborate, to organize, to find one another and make a difference in our communities, organizations and lives. I work with organizations seeking to improve their work, communities seeking to improve their future, people looking to improve their lives. I hold and care for process - the ways in which we work together - to encourage people to make their best possible contributions. I have an unflagging belief that the answers and leadership we need arise out of collaboration and conversation. By facilitating skillful dialogue, I do my best to hold space for futures to emerge.

 

 Teresa Posakony

Berkana Institute
Seattle, Washington, USA
http://www.berkana.org

Teresa's work has led her beyond the bounds of corporate change consulting into the arena of community engagement and collective leadership. She was one of the founding members of Berkana's From the Four Directions initiative which invites leaders into circles of courage, support and reflection. Teresa is passionate about working with groups as they discover their shared purpose and work to create positive futures for their organizations and communities. She does this work globally with the Berkana Institute and its effort to support pioneering leaders and locally through programs such as the “Collective Leadership Circles of Practice” a 9-month team-based learning intensive to engage groups and organizations in unleashing their potential.

 

 Tenneson Woolf

Berkana Institute

 

Provo, Utah, USA
http://www.berkana.org

Over the years, I have been fortunate to work with many good people to create inspired working, learning, and leadership spaces. I spent twelve years working with Berkana growing and stewarding the global network of leaders now called From the Four Directions. I am a host in my family, the hemophiala foundation, the university, and everywhere I go. My interest is simple - to deepen my practice of hosting inspired spaces, and to contribute to a community of people doing likewise. My invitation is also simple - to convene with full hearts and full curiosity to experience and discover the essentials of leading change through hosting. How do we open the space to see each other and make something new possible?

Please come if..
    You have decided that hosting conversations and processes can add to the work you are already doing
    You are prepared to challenge assumptions on how learning and co-creation happen
    You are willing to practice your hosting and leadership by designing your specific project/process that will take place in the near future
     You are willing to take responsibility for your own learning – to bring your “burning questions” and explore them through The Art of Hosting.
     We look forward to seeing you soon!
Brenda, Chris, Teresa and Tenneson
