Develop your skills and knowledge to train others in the full Genuine Contact Program
We invite you to our "train the trainer" workshop to become authorized to teach all of the components of Genuine Contact Program. Join a growing number of colleagues internationally who are working with the Genuine Contact Program, enabling organizations to be healthy and balanced.
The Genuine Contact Program is the vehicle to develop the Conscious Open Space Organization. The Conscious Open Space Organization does better through increasing its capacity to navigate with change and to take advantage of opportunities as they arise. The Conscious Open Space Organization does better because it taps into the wisdom of all of the people involved to find the best solutions. The Conscious Open Space Organization does better because attention is paid to the underpinning "operating system" of the organization, ensuring a healthy terrain from which work gets done effectively with results that surpass expectations.
You will leave this experiential, interactive workshop equipped with:
- Designs for teaching others in sessions 1-4 of the Genuine Contact Program and authorization to use them
- Authorization to use the workbooks and other resources of the Genuine Contact Program
- An expanded understanding of the process of organizational transformation
- An expanded understanding of the key ingredients needed for organizational health and balance
- An expanded understanding of your work in the world and why you do it, enabling you to develop practical strategies that move your purpose and vision forward
- An expanded understanding of working with purpose, leadership, vision, community, management, and relationships within an organization
- An expanded understanding of genuine contact as a key to growth and evolution
- An expanded understanding of working with Spirit through working with energy
Graduates of the “Train the Trainer” become co-creators of the Genuine Contact Program within a limited set of “givens”. Graduates of the Genuine Contact Program have the opportunity to participate in this co-creation and to choose to also become co-owners. Co-ownership has a financial commitment of support and is voluntary. Graduates also have the opportunity to observe and become conscious of their own experiences within two Conscious Open Space Organizations: Genuine Contact Trainers and the International Alliance for Mentoring. Both are international organizations. Both were initiated differently, with different sets and number of “givens”. One is only for the trainers. The other is open to all who are interested.
Graduates are supported through an on-line mentoring circle about the Genuine Contact Program and a face to face mentoring circle that is held annually in Raleigh, North Carolina, USA Sept 25 & 28. These dates are the final 3½ days of the Train the Trainer certification.
