Gathering Natuurlijk

You are warm heartedly welcome to
’Meeting Natuurlijk’

When you bring the energy of a 'Gathering' into your 'Meetings,' collective wisdom will emerge.

About

We created 'Gathering Natuurlijk' to invite leaders (and teams) out of their normal context and into nature. In this natural environment we slow down, disconnect from the everyday performance busy- ness, connect human to human with other leaders and reconnect to our leadership purpose, wisdom and vision.

After experiencing ‘Gathering Natuurlijk,’ we often hear feedback that our participants do not take enough time in their organizations to 'really' engage in conversation with their teams. They don't take the time to carefully reflect together about the dilemmas they are facing today. They don't have skillful conversations to decide their future direction. And they never actually connect to actively 'talk and think' together to make sense of what they are doing and how they are being.

“We don't do this, except on a day like Gethering Natuurlijk!” And that made us think: How could we bring more ‘round’ conversations (like sitting around the camp fire) into organizations? Not to replace the typical 'square / sharp’ action oriented meetings (like sitting across a meeting room table.)... but to find the right balance between these two forms of 'Meeting'. And this is why we created ‘Meeting Natuurlijk.’

What to expect

At 'Meeting Natuurlijk' we come into your organization and literally meet you where you are. We join your team meetings and bring our skills to facilitate different dialogue formats (from Gathering Natuurlijk) in your meeting spaces. Typical themes that we bring to client meetings are : How do we make decisions as a team? How can we have skillful conversations? What is leadership and how do we live this? What are our agreed team behaviors? How do we hold each other accountable to our team behaviors? What is our team purpose and how do we live this? What do we want to learn as a team? How can we improve our team effectiveness?

Step 1

Meeting Observation & Weather Report

We will attend your team meeting, observe the process, content and team dynamics and provide a 'weather report' of how we experience the 'meeting.'

Step 2

Mini - workshop(s)

Depending on the observations we will propose either a series of mini workshops (1 1/2 - 2 hr sessions) to facilitate a change of habits in the team meetings.

Step 3

Meeting Coaching / Facilitation.

In parallel we will support the agenda design for future meetings and attend the meetings to facilitate a change of habits during the team meetings.
