"The means is dialogue, the end is learning, the purpose is peace." ~ Founder Dr. Jane Vella
It’s a universal sentiment: all organizations need meetings and no one likes them. Typical complaints are that meetings are “boring” or “unproductive” or “a waste of time” – and often with good reason.
But what if you could transform your meetings into sessions that were engaging, purposeful and dynamic? What if people left the room feeling motivated and inspired and with clear direction about their objectives?
In this SURE-Fire Meetings course, you’ll discover how to transform your meetings into energizing and productive experiences through Dialogue Education™ (DE). DE is a learning-centered system that uses the power of dialogue to bring participants into active relationship with the content of a learning experience. These same methods transfer beautifully to the conference room by designing meetings to be more collaborative, lively, relevant, and purposeful.
"[SURE-Fire Meetings] was among one of the most safe, useful, respectful, and engaging workshops that I have ever attended."
-Rev. Roger Willer, Ph.D. Director of Theological Ethics
Evangelical Lutheran Church of America
