Liberating Structures Immersion Workshop

What is this workshop?

The Liberating Structures Immersion Workshop is a full-day, in-person, hands-on experience designed to help people facilitate meetings, conversations, and group work with more participation, better thinking, and real engagement.

Many meetings are dominated by a few voices, while others disengage. Ideas get stuck, energy drops, and decisions suffer.

Liberating Structures offer a practical alternative.

They are a collection of simple yet powerful facilitation patterns that make it easy to include everyone, unlock collective intelligence, and turn conversations into meaningful outcomes without relying on open discussions or traditional brainstorming.

This workshop gives you direct experience with Liberating Structures so you can apply them immediately in your own context.
