Craig Neal, originator of the Art of Convening and co-founder of Heartland, is offering a one-day Intensive Workshop. Workshops will be held November 13 in the San Francisco Bay Area, California and December 4 in the Twin Cities area, Minnesota. The Intensive Workshop is based on new material, practices and processes from Craig's upcoming book, The Art of Convening: Authentic Engagement in Meetings, Gatherings and Conversations.

What Will We Do?

The curriculum reveals the 9 Aspects (circles) of the inner and outer dynamics the Convener must consider in designing and executing any engagement. The 9 Aspects form a wheel or sequential path the Convener follows, starting with "At the Heart of the Matter" and continuing to "Commitment to Action."

- Learn the 9 principles of the wheel and corresponding challenges and questions that give
you the theoretical background and practical knowledge for using the Convening Wheel in
your life and practice.
- Experience the Council Process and the 4 Questions Exercise
- Deepen your practice with Stringing the Beads and working with Transitions.
- Receive a written materials including the Convening Wheel diagram and summary.
- Lunch is included along with break snacks.

Who is the Intensive for?
It is for those who wish to expand and deepen their practice, knowledge and capacity for convening. No prerequisite course necessary. Limit of 50 per group.

AoC Intensive Workshop & Thought Leader Gathering Together
We have timed the Intensive Workshops to coincide with a Thought Leader Gathering (TLG) the Friday morning before. The TLGs demonstrate the essence of the AoC theory and practice in a half-day gathering of leaders. We highly recommend, but do not require the workshop participants to attend. However, we are offering a "Package" rate as encouragement to workshop participants who would like to attend the TLG.

Once registered you will receive handouts and journaling assignments to be completed before the workshop day. Other materials will be distributed the day-of. REGISTER
