The
Eagle's Path - Learning in Life Following the Dreaming - Living

the waves of change by following the path of least resistance

mind can be challenging and exhausting. In this workshop, we

in others and in the world. Through following our awareness,
intuition, and dreaming we discover the beauty and wonder of
living in our deepest self. This makes it easier to cope with
those hundred thousand things!

Co-Creation Practice and Supervision
for Leaders, Teachers, Therapists and all Learners
Arny Mindell, Ph.D.
Teachers, learners and leaders can model the necessary keys to
the worlds future. There are at least two basic types of
training for organizational leadership, for teaching, learning
and therapy;
1. Hard skill training
focuses on contents, issues, and cognitive recognition of signals,
edges, roles, feedback etc.
2. Softskill interactional
training for successful human interaction focuses on subtle
background abilities.
Until now, SOFTSKILL training
has been largely implicit.
This supervision class clarifies
the 1ST and 2ND trainings for hard and soft skills, and applies
the new learning in both trainings to specific challenging situations.
Which situations?
Leading in difficult times, teaching
in challenging situations, supervision, hiring, and passing exams.
These situations can be challenging because of inextricable relationship-team-family-community
entanglements, and because of earlier public trauma.
The following three classes
focus on learning and practicing new aspects of the basic quantum
entanglement patterns found in physics, as they apply to
professional practice situations. Expect 1/3 theory, 1/3 demonstrations
, and 1/3 personal dyad training with exercises that integrate
new ideas into practice.
Class 1. Hard +Soft Skills
for Leading, Teaching+Learning so that everyone grows beyond
public trauma
Class 2. Soft Skill Supervision
in Therapy for minimal stress and maximum learning
Class 3. Soft Skill Teamwork;
Criticizing, Hiring, Firing and making Feedback creative without
hurt
To get supervision and
work in the center please write arny
about your interest for Class 1, on teaching or leadership
skills Class 2 for insights into counter transference
problems. Class 3 For working with conflict in teams,
families and organizations.
This class is also done with reference to the new diploma students,
