20 Days Certified Training Course

Intention of the program :
This introduction into systemic thinking and constellation work prepares you for the challenges of an ever more complex world. The interconnectedness of our life can not be grasped with analytical thinking alone. New ways of pre-sensing and understanding what is to come are essential for our effectiveness in a fast changing world.

In this training you will learn the potential of systemic constellation work as well as theory about systemic thinking. We will deal with questions of all aspects of your life as undue specialisation will not provide the fitness you need for global challenges to come. Questions about your life-situation, career, family, personal processes, spirituality, organizational, strategic or philosophical issues as well as your relational capacity are all welcome to fully fathom the potential of this work.
This training appeals to professional people from all walks of (business) life, who feel concerned about the human factor in their daily routines.
This training is not only a ‘training’. It is also about taking you, your present situation and the fast changing world seriously. It is a perfect course to enrich your thinking with transforming ideas, moving experiences and embodied cognition.

The group will range from 14 – 20 people. Previous knowledge is not necessary for attendance. However experience in Coaching, or Consulting techniques, as well as self-modification is advantageous. Johannes Schmidt facilitates the course in English (basic knowledge is sufficient). Documentation and books are available in Dutch and English.
