Amara Events

We offer a set of yearly open Amara events and events in collaboration with other organisations and partners, upon request. We design each event and choose the facilitators with care, to match the developmental needs and interest of the group at hand. All our events are done in the spirit of inquiry, in a experiential learning environment and participants express their experience as powerful and transformational.

Amara is one of three organisations credited to offer a GLP certification workshop. We arrange one each year in the Nordic region and are open to invitations to offer it in partnership in other corners of the world as well. Contact us for partnering with the GLP certification workshop or any other event.

Amara webinar: Transformation through inquiry

September 21, 2021

Hear the inspiring story of Bill (William) Torbert – one of Amara’s founders – as he shares parts of his own developmental journey with us. A central theme in his development, and the transformations he has facilitated, is inquiry, especially the practice of Action Inquiry, which we use widely in our work in Amara. In the webinar we’ll discuss Action Inquiry personally with Bill, and learn practical ways of supporting transformation through inquiry. This free webinar takes place on Tuesday 21st of September at 4-5pm CET.

A programme tailored to your needs:

Power of Three – Towards Self-Organising

This online programme is a catalyst for transformation within organisations. The process helps you develop your own and your team’s capacity to self-organise, to be alert, aware and adaptive in facing the challenges of today and those of the future. The programme combines the powerful threads of in-house trios, experienced outside facilitation, and diversity of thought from other organisations.

Often we hear discussion or see written that the action logics are like a school rating system or some of them are better than other Action Logics in Amara we take a different approach.

Letting go – while being intentional

Amara Associate Lisa Markwick reflects on her learning from co-facilitating the first of Amara’s Power of Three programme with a deep and deepening inquiry about the challenge of Action Inquiry in action as it opens up our mindsets to create space for change and transformation at many levels.

TESTIMONIALS

The Global Leadership Profile Certification workshop in Helsinki, May 2017, was a life changing experience for me. The atmosphere that Jane and Heidi were able to evoke in the group was very special. It was truly living the transformational leadership in action, where every moment was a place for self-reflection and sensing, when to take action, and when to be in silence. I highly recommend this workshop for anyone interested in deeper development, and I suggest to engage in the evening activities as well. It was great to have Bill and Elaine on the line as well, as they are the theoretical experts of the GLP. The international group and great venue location at the heart of Helsinki really highlighted this amazing experience.
