Small and large group facilitation

We offer Action Learning Sets, Impact Groups and Praxis Groups designed to help leaders from a wide range of organisations share and explore their challenges and opportunities. We help you support and challenge each other using structured methodologies so you can think and behave differently in relation to them. We also deliver engagement events for small or large groups of leaders who work in the same organisation or system to help them collaborate about important issues.

In our Action Learning Sets, Praxis Groups and Impact Groups we:

  • stimulate double loop learning by using coaching techniques, challenging and provoking and working reflexively with what’s going in the group
  • pay attention to conscious and unconscious group processes, - supporting you to notice your own perceptions, feelings and thoughts in order that you can use the group to explore new ways of taking actions and making progress with new challenges in the world
  • help you create vehicles for experimentation and tests of change

We provide the space and create the conditions to help you reflect, learn and use new approaches to making a difference in the organisation and the system you lead in. Our work with you will help you develop your confidence as well as your leadership skills and behaviours. 

In our work with groups of leaders from the same organisation or system, we help them to build connections, share perspectives, explore similarities and differences, have difficult conversations, generate ideas and find new ways forward. We:

  • offer a wide range of methods from large-scale Open Space events to the intense exploration of opinions, perspectives and conflicts in small groups
  • promote collaborative leadership in and across organisations a
  • help leaders manage the conflicts between the needs of organisation and the needs of the system and those that seek support from it

In addition to helping leaders to develop new relationships and networks, this work helps them to develop strategy and reshape cultures.
