Wisdom Circles

“The universe is not made of atoms, it’s made of stories.”

Page 2: WISDOM CIRCLES: Sparking Insight Via Personal Story Telling

Wisdom Circles go beyond “business as

usual,” and beyond “best practices”. They provide

an engaging opportunity for people to share what they are

really learning on the job – not just information, but transformation. About life. About trust.

About teamwork, intuition, patience, adaptability,

perseverance, courage, creativity, kindness, and any

number of other “life lessons” that human beings are here to

learn, practice, and pass on…

YOU ARE INVITED!

As as highly regarded member of the human race, you are invited to join a

newly launched, monthly online forum we are calling “wisdom circles” – a

chance for you and open-minded people like yourself to share

memorable “moments of truth” on-the-job – moments when a problem

was solved in a new way or some unexpected learning happened that

would be useful and inspiring to share with others.

The only thing you need to do to prepare for a

WISDOM CIRCLE is recall a “moment of truth” that

happened to you on the job and be ready to share it. You

don’t need to be a master story teller and your

moment of truth doesn’t need to be earth shattering

– just something that got your attention and sparked

an insight, aha, good feeling, or helped you solve

a problem in a new way.Simple pre-work will be

emailed to you in the next few weeks to help you

prepare your story.

"We need to look hard at the stories

we create, and wrestle with them.

Retell and retell them, and work

with them like clay. It is in the retelling and returning that

they give us their wisdom.”

- Marni Gillard
