WHERE SHOULD LEARNERS START? Cliff’s signature courses include SELF & TEAM DISCOVERY, GOAL & PROJECT PLANNING, and FORUM TRAINING. Combined, these courses establish mission, vision, values, action & accountability, and most importantly, structure, protocols, and tools for Individuals Teams, Boards, Forums, and Start-Ups. See descriptions below…
WHAT’S A FORUM? A Forum (often 6-15 members) is a highly confidential, peer-to-peer meeting, with ground rules based on Gestalt Theory (the whole is more than the sum of its parts). A structured Forum often meets monthly to share and learn collective life and business experiences with members presenting issues supported by a member-coach who helps prepare the topic. A facilitated forum adds tools, best practices, and an experienced third-party facilitator (such as Cliff Michaels) who can help resolve issues and take the Forum to new heights.
WHO BENEFITS? Cliff’s E-Courses, Live Training, and Custom Workshops are ideal for Forums, Boards, Committees, Students, Teachers, Start-Up Teams, Creative Artists, and Entrepreneurs.
WHERE & HOW LONG? Training & Facilitation can be done with Zoom meetings, half-day, full-day, or multi-day in-person retreats, customized to your needs. From boardrooms to once-in-a-lifetime experiences, Cliff and his network of world-class trainers & facilitators can be booked anywhere in the world.
