Take Your “Fellowship” Further: Activate and Amplify Your Team’s Capacity to Collaborate and Complete Quests
Facilitated by Amanda Johnson • Room 2 • $99
Leaders have giant goals to achieve, cultures to co-create, and team members to manage. Unfortunately, missions easily turn to mayhem when no one knows how the story will end, what exactly will get them there, or who they can trust along the way. The result? Overwhelm, burnout, and mental and physical health challenges are becoming commonplace in the workplace.
What if it’s simply a matter of telling and embodying better stories?
In this lively experiential workshop, Amanda Johnson will use one of our culture’s most iconic stories to help you:
- clarify or refine the mission and story that unites multiple motivations
- uncover latent superpowers in yourself and your team, and empower everyone to take responsibility for their shadows
- enhance your everyday interactions with the curiosity, creativity, and collaboration of the most epic fellowships with 3 storytelling skills
