Active Engagement – Why this practice now?

The ability to engage effectively, to relate well and thoughtfully, is a necessary skill in the workplace, community & personal relationships.  This course provides a framework to enhance, practice, and discover ways to relate with integrity, work more creatively, and show up as your better self / team.

This approach invites you to explore ways to build on your strengths and overcome blindspots and frustrating patterns that bedevil us all.   MORE

AE 4-day Immersion Intro
24-27 October, 2023 – Tuesday to Friday
Edmonton, Alberta In-Person

14-17 November, 2023 – Online training session.

Active Engagement supports each person to ‘make real’ the cutting-edge theories we hear about: to internalize and practice higher awareness and engagement; and with the ability to better lead a group through stuck places, ‘undiscussables’, and high conflict situations.
This 4-day training provides a theoretical grounding, skill practice and the opportunity to develop your existing communications and engagement skills to a level of higher personal mastery.
Participants describe this session as enhancing the effectiveness of staff at all levels, providing immediate ways to engage challenging situations, and doing so with great depth and respect for personal freedom. They also find it a powerful personal relationship enhancer.

We will be hosting a face to face training in Edmonton, Alberta 24-27 October. We look forward to returning to our in-person work (while continuing to offer online sessions as well)!

Our next available public AE Intro 4-day using our Online Small Group Training platform will be Tues. to Fri. 14-17 November, 2023.
We look forward to the rich learning experiences! Attendees at multiple AE 4-day trainings have described them as “the best training I’ve attended,” and more broadly past grads speak of this as “the most impactful training I’ve taken, personally and professionally.”
