Th half-day is ideal for groups wanting to get a taster of what is possible within Three Horizons, and if you are trying to fit it into a broader retreat agenda. We begin with a discovery call to shape your objectives for the workshop. We present a design plan for approval, and invitations to circulate to colleagues. Over three to four hours, we facilitate myriad breakout groups to populate most of the horizons. Pre-readings help participants open themselves up to other ways of being and knowing. A short report documents what emerged during the workshop for participants and colleagues.

The full-day is the most popular option as it enables us to dive deeply into all the horizons, with longer breakout groups for the participants to surface deeper responses. We introduce both practices and a guest speaker that further expand the group’s thinking and being. The time can be broken into two half-days or one full-day. In addition to the scope for the half-day, we also create a survey for participants to evaluate outcomes, write a report with emergent findings, and prepare a presentation for internal audiences.

A two-day workshop is for teams who are deeply committed to emerging concrete outcomes for transitions. While the first day is similar to our full day workshop, the second day enables us to move from the “what” to the “how”—bridging strategy and implementation. We invite other guests to join us for the second day who are steeped in the groundwork of transitions. We will also have more time dedicated to developing participants’ capacities to hold change and remain in the productive zone of disequilibrium (Heifetz & Laurie).
