We are excited to announce a residential, ‘Art of Hosting & Harvesting Conversations that Matter Training’ (also called ‘Art of Participatory Leadership’) training program over 4 days, at a beautiful green location in the outskirts of Bangalore. We welcome all who are interested in exploring participatory leadership while co-creating a thriving community of practice in India.

We find ourselves at a moment in time when the polycrises seem almost insurmountable and though we are busy trying to respond, the old ways of working seem not to be working and indeed are part of what created many of the problems we face. Many of us feel we need to figure out how to do things differently and slow down to focus on creating quality over quantity. As Bayo Akomolafe suggests, “The times are urgent, Lets Slow down”

What if we became curious about what is changing and evolving? What if we found the open heartedness to truly listen to people we disagree with, and what if we discovered that in the cracks we find hidden wonders and our disagreements point to breakthroughs….?

We invite you to join us in March to learn how to create the conditions for such conversations and how to access our collective wisdom.

The Art of Hosting/Participatory Leadership  is a response to our global complexity, at a time when institutions and democracies themselves are failing to address the increasing chaos in our world. It is a testing ground for those seeking to find new effective and healthy patterns for organising, innovating and interacting to create new forms that serve us all better.

The training is fully participatory to allow participants to experience methods, models and practices.
