SUMMARY:Facilitation Frontiers #4: My facilitation footprint
DESCRIPTION:Session 4: Monday 31 August 2026\n\nFootprint is a metaphor for where do you want to put your “foot” to try out a learning area you want to get more experience with. You are welcome to dream into beforehand\, or just forget it and turn up as you are!\n\nTimes: \n\n\n\n\nOslo/Berlin/Ams: 10am – 12 noon\nNairobi\, Myanmar: 11am – 1pm\n\nBangkok: 3pm – 5pm\nSydney: 6pm – 8pm\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\nWelcome to the whole series or single sessions.\nOnline or anytime via recording \n\n\nIn any process\, be that an event\, an actual session\, or an experience of any kind\, there are various frontiers to navigating the landscape you are in\, and the path you uniquely take. Process Work facilitation provides a language and a map to traverse the terrain using your own self-generated compass.\n\nWhat facilitation frontier do you want to cross? In this series\, you will be guided to discover your unique way of doing that. Facilitation can be applied to any context\, and knowing your personal and collective frontiers can help in honing your craft and facilitation love language.\n\nFACILITATION FRONTIERS: my way\, your way\, our way\n\nWelcome to Mystery PlaygroundIn every process — a meeting\, conflict\, conversation\, event\, relationship\, classroom\, organisation\, or inner experience — there are frontiers. \nProcess Work facilitation offers practical prompts to navigate these living landscapes\, and your innate compass. \nInstead of a fixed formula\, we develop precision in noticing living signposts emerging moment by moment \nTogether we will explore: \n\npersonal and collective frontiers in facilitating an unfolding of a topic or signal\nhow groups dream and signal\nhow conflict can become information for the facilitator\nhow to facilitate moment-by-moment with what is actually happening\nand getting to know your own facilitation style that is already present\n\nFacilitation can be applied anywhere:\nleadership\, coaching\, organisational roles\, therapy\, education\, community work\, activism\, teams\, relationships\, creative practice\, at home and any aspect of everyday life. \nYou do not need to become someone else to facilitate well. Exactly who you are already contains a facilitation blueprint. \nPossible themes \n\nWhat Signal to Follow?\nWhat just happened!\nIn the Thick of the Mess\nFear of conflict\nFinding the polarity and setting roles\nUnfolding Hotspots to Cool Spots\nNot knowing what to do now\nFacilitation team tips\nFraming topics and moments\n\nFor:For facilitators\, coaches\, educators\, leaders\, therapists\, organisers\, Process Work students\, Deep Democracy practitioners\, and curious humans interested in navigating real life\, relationships\, groups\, and teams with more awareness\, creativity\, precision\, and connection. \nRecordings available anytime

SUMMARY:Pop-Up Facilitation: Deep Democracy Conflict Cafe in everyday life\, roles and dreams
DESCRIPTION:Registration here: https://forms.gle/cfY3vpg5PYp1QCJz6 \nConflict doesn’t wait for the right moment. It shows up at the kitchen table\, in the team meeting\, in body symptoms\, relationship hesitations and irritations\, and in the dream you woke from at 3am. It’s already in motion — in the body\, between people\, in the field around us.\n \nConflict is everywhere. In our world. Our Institutions and communities. Between us. Our families and relationships. In our Inner dilemmas\, our dreams\, our bodies. We know the cost. Many of us have gathered wisdom\, tools and reflexes along the way to deal with conflict. And yet theories and learned skills are often inadequate for dealing with an impossible mess when our survival reflexes override access to our beloved theories and skills in the here and now.  \n \nWhat if we could turn our conflict messes into gold as an everyday habit\, and get closer to what makes us truly happy\, using who we are and following exactly what is already happening? \nIn this three-day seminar we liken facilitating conflict to a pop-up café — a freshly ground triple espresso or a calming chamomile tea\, depending on who you are and how you show up\, in the middle of all of it. \nWe draw from the roots of Process Work in the lineage of Arnold Mindell and the applied approaches of Max and Ellen Schupbach\, and apply in the moment. \nHow? \nUsing the Deep Democracy Group Process Cycle stations as prompts\, we develop new awareness reflexes that become more accessible in moments of stress and confusion and\, can over-ride survival de-fault reflexes in moments when they block our inner facilitator from being present. \nThis experiential workshop introduces a paradoxical conflict alchemy using three types of power\, in the spirit of the medieval alchemists who fired up raw metals and allowed the heat to transform them into gold. We’ll work with three types of conflict power: \n1. Social (contextual) power – systemic influences\, social norms\, entitlement and victim identities (contextual): Raw metals.  \n2. Relational (subjective) power – the ability to roll between diverse perspectives\, each side expresses itself fully\, over time a shift in viewpoint: Applying heat. \n3. Essence (field) power – a moment dropping into essence and a momentary one-ness where new\, surprising insights and solutions spontaneously pop up: Gold \nLearning format: \nThe learning approach includes short presentations\, thought experiments\, exercise demonstrations and practice in pairs\, as well as discussion in the large group. The purpose of exercises is not to copy a program\, but to begin to set a new pattern and reflex as the beginning of a habit that you can access when under stress and pressure: \n\nlearn to notice tiny signals that appear before a conflict fully appears;\nbecome more friendly with your long-term conflicts you don’t want to touch;\nand learn skills to address tensions/conflicts you wish you could address but don’t yet know how.\n\n  \nWe’ll practice the awareness moves that become available when we shift from managing conflict to facilitating ourselves in the midst of conflict. \nThis seminar is experiential education. \nHow the three days work: \nDays 1 and 2 focus on building skills\, attitudes and practices. \nDay 1: Get to know your internal encoding as your unique way to travel though conflicts \nLearn to recognise the phase a conflict is in\, and tailor interventions/including the option of doing nothing…. accordingly \nPractice in a friendly atmosphere with an attitude: we are all in the same boat – today you\, tomorrow me \nDay 2  \nThe other side of power – how conflict provides a ready made energy point for unlocking personal power and creativity when stuck in stressful and immovable situations. \nDay 3 is a practice day for everyone — working live\, with support and guidance\, to hone your own area of facilitation interest\, in the middle\, in pop-up café style. \nDay 1+2 is training style. Day 3 is a practice day. Day 3 is for anyone who attended Day 1+Day 2\, and is also open as a standalone for Processwork students/practitioners.   \nFor those who like to read beforehand: The Leader as Martial Artist and The Leader’s 2nd Training\, both by Arnold Mindell\, are companions to this seminar. \nFor facilitators\, coaches\, educators\, conflict resolvers\, leaders\, therapists\, and curious humans. Process Work background welcome but not required. \nWhat to expect: experiential exercises\, short theoretical presentations to illuminate the experiential aspects\, small and large group interactions \nVenue: Rudolf Steiner University College\, Professor Dahls Gate 30\, Oslo — a cool village atmosphere with plenty of accommodation options\, cafes and eating places nearby. \nMorning and afternoon refreshments provided \nRegistration: Register below. full three days\, or first two seminar days only. \nOslo\, Norway · October 24–26\, 2026 \n \n
