Through the stories being told, the dilemmas people surfaced actually got solved! In my own dilemma, I learned  that actually I knew what to do for myself all along.... I left the room feeling totally satisfied.

Story Circles For Teams

Three-hour Team Working Sessions

200213029-001_8bAll too often team learning consists of trivial “lessons learned” sessions that generate few real insights and rob the organization of the hard-won intelligence gained through the team’s effort.

Yet it is surprisingly easy to harvest the most valuable insights hidden in a team’s history – by creating a focused context for sharing experiences, and using those to develop best practices and strategies for solving future problems.  These short, highly engaging sessions are ideal for harvesting knowledge while simultaneously building the relationships and trust that enable future learning and collaboration.

Participant Takeaways

  • Depending on the focus, these sessions will produce:
  • Critical best-practices accompanied by memorable examples
  • Practical solutions to recurring problems
  • Accelerated team launches and greater alignment
  • Ability to capitalize on past value creation and knowledge
  • Clarity regarding shared frontiers for innovation and learning
  • Deeper relationships, trust, and collaboration
  • Closure and acknowledgment that enables team members to move on effectively

Who Will Benefit

  • Teams just forming, facing significant problems, in transition or facing layoffs and endings
  • Learning communities

Easily customized for your team or professional group.

Fees generally range from $300-500 per session, and include a customized story mural.
