Accept Every Offer – In Person Training – Community Outreach Wisconsin

Overview:

In this training you will discover how to generate more creative ideas in less time, get unstuck about tricky questions you are facing, re-think how meetings are structured, get your ideas heard, deepen listening skills and increase the engagement of stakeholders.

How will you discover this? I will teach you a simple process that requires practice. We will practice together. You will leave being able to teach others!

This is a much-requested session, which I have done with American Family Dream Bank, Group Health Cooperative, lots of disability-focused and community engagement-focused events, and many human service providers.
