Unlock the Door; Start Your Journey
If you work in an office, then you will likely need to interact with all kinds of different people on an ongoing basis. Being part of an office is less about you, and more about how you can help the company achieve it's goals as part of a group or team.

Is There a Way Improve the Dynamics at Work?
Did your "buddy" at work really just undermine you in front of the boss? Did your supervisor just pass you in the hall and ignore you because of what you said in the meeting? Why is it that I never get invited out with the group on Friday nights after work?
The first step in improving dynamics at work is to get a better understanding of what is motivating people to do the things that they do. In most cases, we tend to choose our own explanation for why somebody else is doing something and our choice is based on our perceptions of what we would be doing in that same situation. We apply our perceptions, values and options to a person that does not have those same perceptions, values and options. We are completely different people, with different upbringings, histories, personalities, living conditions, goals, expectations and values. We can pick our friends and we can pick our partners, but co-workers come as a package deal with our jobs. If we want to be happy at work, it certainly helps to be around people that we can appreciate, and the first step in developing a level of respect for someone is to understand them and for everyone to understand themselves. |

There are no couches here. No desks. It's not a seminar or a conference. It's just a great group of people who are all willing to try something different, mixed with some structure from Bruce Dougherty and Dr. Gisele Tennant from A Conscious Partner.
We will cover many of the situations and issues that you have likely been facing and we will expose information that you wished you would have had years ago. Better yet, we will help you to better understand both yourself and your co-workers.

The Conscious Quest is
Improving Office Dynamics! There are 6 events or "GrowthShops" that make up the journey of A Conscious Office. Each event is designed to help everyone dig a little deeper and better understand each other.
The best part is that these events are interactive, social, and FUN. This is a group environment that is very similar to sitting with friends at the local pub. We just add a little structure, some interesting discussion points and away we go. |
So How Do We Do This?
This is the easy part.
We have 6 events that are all completely different, and they don't need to be taken in any particular order.
We have 6 events that are all completely different, and they don't need to be taken in any particular order.
For many people, the concern about trying to get this done revolves around not having enough time, the cost factor, or being in a situation that might make you feel uncomfortable. Let's take a look at these 3 factors.
|
TIME - The events are all about 3 hours. They are positive, interactive, and FUN! They will bring energy to everyone involved and will have everyone understanding each other a little better with each event taken. The events can be set up on a schedule and can be done in a private room at the office, or we can arrange a private room in a local pub or restaurant. We can also host the events during office hours or on an evening or weekend. This is not a major time commitment.
|
|
|
PRICING - The cost for each event is $499 for a group of up to 20 people. If you would like a quote for a larger or much smaller group please contact us. So yes...It's affordable!
|
|
SAFE - If you have been out to an ACP event, you will know that it is a safe place to be. This is not a classroom; it is not a seminar.
If you have never been out, it is hard to describe to you the impact of sitting and talking with others about important subjects in a structured, but relaxed environment. Yes, you will fit in and feel safe! |

The best way to learn more before making a commitment for your office would be to attend one of our other events. They are held in private rooms in local pubs or coffee shops so that you can have a drink, maybe order some food and you can participate at a level where you're comfortable. The events are highly structured with lots of tasks that will help us all learn more about ourselves and others. You get to decide if you want to talk, or just sit and listen!

Conscious Communication
Communication (or a lack of effective communication) either makes or breaks most relationships.
Relationships don’t exist in a vacuum. They exist between two emotional human beings who bring their own past experiences, history, and expectations into it. Two different people also have different levels of skill when it comes to communication, but the good news is that if communication is a skill...then it can be improved upon. We can all develop our communication skills.
We can all improve our relationships with better communication. So let’s do that! |
|
Emotional Triggers
All of us have some kind of trigger or “hot button,” that, when pushed, sets us off into uncomfortable emotions that may even lead to anger, hostility or fear. Does that happen to you sometimes? All the time?
You may have heard of “trigger warnings” or “getting triggered” by another person before. But what does getting triggered actually mean and how can you control it? It really is worth putting in the effort to explore your emotional triggers. The more aware you are, the less you will be ruled by the unconscious forces within you. And it’s not even that difficult to explore your triggers. The hardest part is actually to commit to the process. |

The Conflict Connection
As anyone who has a relationship of any kind knows, some kind of conflict between is unavoidable. Partners, friends, parent child, family.... It can crop up for any number of reasons, and in many cases, it escalates not because there is a real issue, but because the issues are not being communicated and understood between the parties involved.
It's easy for something to be poorly communicated or taken out of context, as we all think differently! We have different moods, different upbringings, different experiences and different perceptions of almost every subject and situation. How do you handle conflict? How does your "opponent" handle it? Let's find out! |
|
Explore Your Personality
Why is it important to know your personality type? Well, you will likely get a better understanding of both yourself and your partner. We all have different reactions and perceptions to the same situations and it is important to understand why.
We all see and interact with the world in different ways. No personality type is "better" than any other – just different, and each perspective brings something new and interesting to the table. Let's explore, understand and appreciate our differences! |
|
Core Values
Successful couples are those who share core values which ultimately connect them on that deep level, laying the foundation for a strong future.
We spend our time looking for someone with whom we are mutually attractive and with similar interests and those elements are extremely important, but they do not translate into long term relationships. So, what are core values and how can you determine if you share them with your significant other? Let's find out! |
|
Powerful Questions
Powerful questions make us think; they add some clarity to the world we are living in and give us a better understanding of who we are and how we perceive others.
Ultimately, by asking... and answering powerful questions, we are given the opportunity to look inside, and to get feedback from others, around subjects that we may not have ever looked at or may be avoiding. They help us to challenge our ideals. They give us an opportunity to shed light on some parts of grief that we may not be addressing and help us to be sure that we are committing our time and effort towards moving forward. |
