What is the Art of Hosting?
Art of Hosting is a group facilitation methodology that explores the questions above and which serves as inspiration for this intensive's teaching. Learning and innovation takes place so that radical change and wise actions can be discovered. Collective intelligence and creative solutions emerge. Art of Hosting is a global community that hosts events around the world. This event will be the first Art of Hosting-inspired event in California. Join me in supporting this methodology and global practice.
