Workshop & Group Coaching (online)
Part 1: Workshop
Date: Tuesday, November 10, 7pm to 8pm (Eastern)
If your organization, small business, or community group was informed by natural principles, how might your work flow more easily and/or become more resilient? Bring design thinking to your organization.
This participatory workshop will help you apply permaculture principles and ecological design thinking in your organization, through individual exercises and group discussions.
Note for Participants:
- This workshop builds on the content of the previous social permaculture event (you will receive the recording beforehand).
- Part 1 will be recorded (only available to those who register), if you cannot attend live.
Part 2: Group Coaching Session
Choose a Date: Tuesday, November 17, 12pm to 1pm; OR Wednesday, November 18, 6:30pm to 7:30pm (Eastern).
In this group coaching session, Bonita will provide reflections, examples, and additional prompts based on the written exercises submitted for all the organizations. These prompts will be explored in small groups, followed by closing reflections and questions with Bonita.
Note for Participants:
- To make the most of this session, you will be asked to submit the written exercises about your organization by November 15, so Bonita can review them before this session.
- It is best to attend one of the live coaching sessions. The portions in the main room will be recorded (only available to those who register).
What are the connections between different projects, departments, and/or stakeholders in your community? How might you create more beneficial connections to support your work?
