LOPN PRACTITIONER PRACTICE SESSIONS (NEW)*
This is a new programme for LO practitioners. Have you ever hoped to practice the tools you have learned in a safe environment? Well, then these practice sessions are for you!!
How does it work? Well-intentioned subject 'leaders' present an issue and invite you to use the 60 tools you have learned on the issue. Practice your skills individually and as a group. At the end of the session, these subject leaders would have ideas they can go back to try out at their workplaces and you would have honed your skills further.
Drop a note at lopnadmin@pacific.net.sg if you are interested to participate in this. We expect to be running the first sessions in the first part of the year. There would be coaching on the side as part of supporting your learning on using the tools. Participants are expected to show capacity for self-work. Look out for dates and details here!

"For a long time I had felt like a mouse on a corporate treadmill and I was curious to find out how the programmes was going to provide me with some new insights and fresh perspectives. As the days unfolded, I thought the program was pleasant, relaxing and a good opportunity to recharge the battery. It wasn't until I came home, however, when it suddenly dawned on me that I had subtly changed. It was as if in this moment of stillness in Vermont, I had changed a lens on my mental camera and was looking at the world in a different way. As if in a moment of connection with life and the universe, I finally understood that our greatest power to change the world lies in our power to see beyond the veil." - Recent Participant

"The Action Design Institute is among the most powerful developmental experiences I've had in my career. I now have tools and approaches to help me understand dilemmas, appreciate the perspective of others and know how to help when the conversation appears stuck. - Global Quality Manager, BP Solar. .... "I really enjoyed the Action Design workshops when I took them but I also noticed that they had a 'time release' quality in my life. It's been a gradual process but I have actually caught myself seeing things very differently." - An Organizational Development Director.
