FACILITATOR'S INITIATION WORKSHOP

FACILITATOR'S INITIATION WORKSHOP

Authentic Approach & Tools

Differentiate yourself from all the one-size fits all tools & activities in the field of men’s work.

We focus on emphasising what makes you, you.

So we can develop a unique format & approach for your gatherings that will make you stand out in your own way.

A Life of Integrity

The goal is to be the same person at an event as in your private life -integrity. First gain a greater understanding of who you are & where you have impact in bringing ‘the work’.

Then the work starts the moment you leave our container. Learn how to apply your principles and values into your private life too.

In & Out.

Gain Experience

There’s only one way; by doing.

It is an interactive course containing many group exercises for you to experiment, get feedback & learn.

The more you experiment the more confidence you gain. We promise you this is a big ride internally.

When you go ‘out there’ you’ve already gained the necessary experience needed.

In-Person Course | Netherlands

In these 3 days you will be completely immersed and exposed to your leadership. It will be confronting, inviting, encouraging & expanding. One that will have a direct effect in what you attract and lead with and who gets influenced by it. We will offer basic principles and practical tools to learn to be able to hold yourself, how to stay in integrity with yourself and how to do this when engaging with someone else or a group setting.

It is much more than a pratical course learning all the tips and tricks, you will be challenged in your values, the way you show up in life when not performing. Developing an inner sovereignty in your authenticity that will be life guiding and serve as an inner compass.

We believe that in order to be sufficient and effective as a leader and dealing with the dynamics of a group during an engagement, you first need to be able to hold space for yourself. This course will emphasise that internal process, which will then be extended to working with the other and finally the group settings.

We aim to empower you to find your own voice, style, and authentic way of guiding a group. You will be encouraged bring in your spirit, skills, talents, personal experiences and background, so that you can confidently lead in your own way, supported by tools that we offer. You will also be met with the parts of you that are refraining you from stepping into the expanded version of yourself.

After the course, you will have a real life experience of how you can facilitate yourself in different circumstances, how you can authentically connect with others and lead a group from the heart and with clarity & confidence. Displaying a set of experiences & skills that come authentically to you.

If you're ready for a real challenge & change, this is it.
It's not for those who come in with a cup that's already full.

For any other questions, we refer to the FAQ below.

In-Person Course Netherlands

A course over 3 months consisting of 8 in person sessions & 8 mid-month checkin's online. These sessions will be divided over a period of 12 weeks, the in-between weeks you will be checking in with your group & given prompts. We will offer basic principles and practical tools to hold space, create rituals and guide a group through a process of authentic connection. You'll learn of what comes at play during a session & how to work with that. The good thing about the course, all principles & tools can be applied in personal settings too.

THE ELEMENTS

Part I - Authentic Self

The foundation, there’s no holding space if you cannot hold space for yourself or don’t even know what’s yours. What are you bringing to the table? Who are you truly? What makes it you? What triggers you?

What elements of you will come into play? What makes you authentic? How well do you know yourself?

Part II - Self & Other

After knowing more of yourself. The dance begins with another person from ‘self’. Now it’s 2 persons at play. What comes at play, how to engage, read, understand, open up. See what it can bring you in interaction.

Learn to move with clear intention and handle responsively.

Part III - Holding (the) Space

What moves a group? What works for quick engagement? How to deepen? How to change the energy of the group & how to read it.

How do you hold yourself with so many men engaged? What is the buildup of a gathering?

Frequently Asked Questions

If there’s any questions left unanswered or you wish to reach out you can do so here. Speak soon, brother.

I cannot pay at once, what are the options?

For that you can send a direct mail to: hellothere@thegatheringofmen.earth and we look together for possibilities.

I’ve been present at gatherings, so I’ve seen how to do it. Should I still do this?

For us this is a 100% yes. We’ve had men coming in for many times and decided to host afterwards. Realising that it is a whole different ballgame. Many more factors at play & one of the biggest is yourself. Being a facilitator at a gathering is more complex than a participant/guest for many reasons. We’ll dedicate specific time to this during the course.

Will I learn interventions & dealing with trauma?

For this initiatory journey no. This will provide you a clear overview on creating a structured and organized journey while also holding yourself. To intervene is a next level to the course. For that you need more time & first create a truly safe space.

Will I be a facilitator for The Gathering of Men after this?

Possibly. If we feel we’re a good match we can initiate and progress further on working together. This will also serve if you start your own men’s gathering. You can explicitly state after signing up if you want to do it for us and by that time we will assess whether the time is there or not.
