A transformative learning experience
Participatory leadership is a key driver for major transformation of teams to foster commitment to innovative solutions and the emergence of win-win situations. The techniques can help to facilitate meaningful and inspiring conversations as well as conflicts and tension. They allow the creation of solutions, the collection of diverse viewpoints and the development of group proposals, no matter if this includes 10 or 500 persons. It also has proven to contribute to the reduction of turnover rates in work teams and organisations.

An art that takes practice and careBut this is more than a suite of methods – it is also a practice. We call it the Art of Hosting because it is an art to become skillful at helping ourselves and others work well together, especially in these times of increasing complexity. We talk about hosting, because what is offered here is not a typical facilitation or moderated session. It gives attention and care to all aspects of people’s work together, intending to host them in being successful, just as any person welcoming guests will make sure they have everything they need to make their visit fruitful.
