Reflect-Act-Learn Workshops

The principal focus of a 'reflect - learn - act' workshop is the exploration of differences between the mental model(s) you use to understand a situation, and current reality. Rather than always using your current views on the situation (potentially rejecting an important reality), you are able to explore new perspectives and approaches. This will typically involve a fresh understanding of the situation, which modifies your mental model(s) and enhances your approach to addressing workplace challenges. A real 'win-win'!
