Everything is changing. Radical shifts in our ecological, social, political, emotional and economic landscapes are required. The long view, the future, is present to us now. We have choices to make. What new ways of being and doing will serve us and our planet?

To imagine and respond to the new world that is emerging we need to learn to work with ourselves and others across difference, to have conversations that generate possibilities for a brighter future. Our worldviews, our mindsets and the deepest stories we tell about the world can be remade into new shared paths for walking into the uncertain future together.

The Art of Hosting and Harvesting Conversations that Matter (also known as the Art of Participatory Leadership) offers simple and powerful participatory practices, patterns and processes to host generative conversations. These approaches have been used effectively in diverse contexts worldwide to harness collective wisdom, encourage compassionate leadership, and create better social and environmental outcomes.

We warmly invite you to join this first 3-day introductory training in Western Australia. It will be held at Roelands Village in the Bunbury region – formerly an Aboriginal mission and home to over 500 stolen generation children. Today it is run by an Aboriginal organisation looking to create a positive place of healing and development for the children of the mission and their families – creating an area where culture can be rediscovered and opportunities can begin to grow.
