As facilitators, consultants, and coaches, we all run some kind of mental model or framework in the background. Whether it’s listening/learning models like Theory U, meta-models like Integral Theory, or developmental models like Theory of Process or Spiral Dynamics, these models inform the way we lead groups and filter information. In this workshop we will explore the way these models influence our work and how we can leverage them to provide the most value and impact for our clients and partners.

Key takeaways or learning objectives

• Understand how our mental models create bias or blind spots in our work
• Discover models other practitioners are using to frame perspectives and problems
• Learn how to consciously leverage our models to create value for those we serve
