What do I do Now?

The New Normal, how confusing can that be. Let's first dive into the possible meanings of this. Is it about what we notice that is - or has become mainstream? Or is it what we approve or even strive for. And what are the consequences of those different meanings. And what in that theme is the work that needs us doing. How do we engage with this world, connect with its harsh realities, and resolve to keep searching for meaningful work? What is that exactly in the New Normal? During this session we will explore the state of the world, civilization and how the work of coaching can support what might be needed for the future. We will focus on how we can contribute All in a highly interactive way, benefiting from the collective intelligence present in the room!
