ABOUT THE WORKSHOP

In daily life and in business we usually do not think about the consequences of our thoughts or actions from a big picture perspective. We don’t know how to think systemically - how our thoughts and actions have consequences for ourselves, our families or others, our business, co-workers, teams, customers, the business culture, the environment, community or the planet.  

Daily life shows us we are mutually interdependent and interconnected not only with each other but also with the environment and the planet (the web of life) and that how we think and what we do as a result, has a systemic impact or consequence.

This workshop is an invitation for us to see this systemic reality so that we can become aware and conscious of our thoughts and actions and the impacts they may have when it comes to choices, decisions and solutions.  

This is an incredible opportunity to learn a new thinking tool that empowers you to make wise, clear, ethical and informed choices, decisions and solutions through an understanding of conscious responsible thinking.

You will discover what kind of thinking this is and how to do it and implement it in your niche through practical business examples in a fun, safe, explorative and experiential way.

The key learning objectives are:

1. Understanding Conscious Responsible Thinking

• Why It’s Important for Decision Making

• How to Do It

• How to Use It

2. Understanding the Benefits

• What You See Now That You Didn't See Before

There will be a questions and answers time included at the end of the workshop.
