About this meet up
In this month’s meet-up we’ll try out Liberating Structure Troika Consulting together. The structure helps people gain insight on challenges they face and unleash local wisdom for addressing them.
In quick round-robin “consultations”, individuals ask for help and get advice immediately from two others. Peer-to-peer coaching helps with discovering everyday solutions, revealing patterns, and refining prototypes. This is a simple and effective way to extend coaching support for individuals beyond formal reporting relationships.
Everyone will have the opportunity to both receive and give coaching. Bring along a current challenge that you’d like support with – and your best listening skills.
The meet-up is co-facilitated by Clare Clark and Joe Power.

About Q’s Liberating Structures group
Q’s Liberating Structures group meets online each month to explore, practice and trial one or more of the Structures. It’s a supportive space, and everyone is welcome. The group meet ups are co-facilitated by members of the community. While there are varying levels of experience with Liberating Structures and facilitation in the group, no one is an expert. We rely on peer support. Everyone is safe to try something new and learn together through participation.
