Monthly Program: OD Workshop - Grow and Let Go

Program Description

Sponsor: MNODN and Pacific NW OD Network(PNODN)

Time: 6:30-8:30pm CT, August 16

Channel: Zoom

Are you looking for a quick and fun way to examine the present and plan for the future? Ecocycle Planning can both help you see the big picture and choose next steps for anything with a life cycle: a project, an unexpected event, your activities, a trip or even your health.

 In this session, you’ll choose a topic and map out what you are starting, doing well, undoing and dreaming about and where you are stuck. And you’ll receive support in identifying how to move forward. Come prepared to grow what you want and let go of what is getting in the way!

What to bring: a large sheet of paper (flip charts are ideal), sticky notes, pens and curiosity. Participants will learn the Ecocycle by applying it to a project of their own choosing. They will also discuss things in small groups using activities based on Liberating Structures.

Three Learning Objectives (Count for PMI course credit):

  1. Try a quick and simple, yet profound, planning tool (Ecocycle Planning)

  2. Explore how you might use the tool in your work and life

  3. Receive feedback on your next steps
