EVENT DETAILS
The purpose of our time together is to develop our Thinking Environment knowledge and expertise, following Nancy’s “blueprint” and with all the benefits of thinking afresh as a smaller group.
The blueprint being to create and be in a Thinking Environment, experiencing working with the Ten Components’ framework and the Four Building Blocks, together with the opportunity to think about topics of our choice.
And most importantly, to see a Thinking Partnership demonstration, as well as having our own full Thinking Session.
