“Open Space, as Drew facilitated it, was a perspective-changing way to engage with my colleagues. It shifted the way that I think about presenting and sharing information away from the teach-receive dichotomy, about what it looks like to learn from and alongside others, and about the value that I hold in our network. I saw colleagues stepping up to share their thoughts no matter their role in their organization, length of time in the field, or even if knew any of the answers to important questions. It allowed us to delve into topics that were urgent and important in that given moment and to hold space to explore questions that none of us had answers to. I cannot recommend enough Open Space to build camaraderie, to learn and share in a fun and supportive environment, and to focus on what is most important to your field right now.”

Overall, I think everything was awesome. There was a ton of time for discussion, and I appreciate Drew letting us speak on feelings and dissect them as those conversations came out. I appreciate the work Drew is doing and hope to attend his sessions again!

This course really helped me streamline my calendar and allow myself time to complete the many tasks that need done. I feel like you thought of it all, the communication was great, and I appreciated all the training materials and recordings in a single folder. The tools were accessible, and both Drew and Tonoa were fabulous people.
