Workshops and Retreats

Most people don’t start out wanting a workshop or a retreat; they want to skill up their team, improve collaboration, strengthen communication, or just get important work done. Workshops and retreats can be efficient ways to get those things… but they can also be a huge waste of time and money when they’re done poorly.

We are skilled speakers and facilitators with diverse career backgrounds and decades of experience across multiple industries. Whether you want a self-serve course, a training for your team, a facilitated board retreat, or a multi-day offsite, we can strategize, plan, and execute to make it a memorable and transformational experience.

We have run workshops, facilitated meetings, or appeared on stage for

  • Companies such as PwC, Wells Fargo, PG&E, Microsoft, and Target
  • Social impact organizations such as United Way, Cancer Support Community, CHC: Creating Healthier Communities, American Heart Association, and American Cancer Society
  • Conferences such as Points of Light, Boston College Corporate Citizenship Conference, Charities@Work, and San Francisco Writers Conference
  • Universities such as Stanford, Oregon State, UC Berkeley, and UC Davis.

    We can develop a workshop custom tailored to your needs, whether it’s for a small corporate team, a family starting a caregiving journey, or a company planning a corporate offsite. We also have several workshops we’ve developed on a variety of topics including burnout and compassion fatigue, building an action plan, the three C’s of caregiving, the 11 paths to resilience, writing with clarity and power, and publishing and assisted self-publishing.
  • For Your Board
    We have more than four decades of social impact work between us including nonprofit staff and leadership, foundation staff and leadership, volunteer and event management, and board governance.
  • For Your Clients
    Many of our workshops are formulated for engaging both staff and clients, especially our workshops centered on caregiving, compassion fatigue, and burnout. For example, both the staff and the clients of a nonprofit or care facility would benefit from our compassion fatigue and resilience workshops.
