InitiatorVibhaspace Aug 2012 - May 2022New Delhi Area, IndiaA lot of the work in social development sector is for capacity building through trainings, workshops, consultations and conferences. The key objective of these is to transfer knowledge, build skills, change attitudes, generate new ideas or to build consensus.However, these programs are usually conducted in such a manner that all the knowledge and experience present in the room cannot be fully tapped. Often, the set-up is such that only extroverts end up speaking; the method is such that participants feel disengaged; the schedule leaves no time for reflection; trainer’s behaviour makes participants feel judged or excluded. As a result, trainings become boring and frustrating for many participants, hampering optimal learning and often outcomes generated are not translated into actions. Our work is to create space, hold it in life nurturing ways of optimal learning and tap wisdom of the participants using holistic processes and tools. Commonly identified as Facilitators, our primary domains of work are organization development, project design, visioning, capacity building, strategic planning, project review & revision. Our holistic facilitation engages the mind, body, emotions and spirits of participants. Processes & tools create conditions to connect with self & with one-another at a deeper level & find solutions by tapping collective wisdom & the whole brain. Most of our work is done through workshops, which are life-nurturing spaces for participants to discuss agenda in an efficient manner, resulting not only in better grasping of content taught but also inspiration for actions & improved efficiency as a team.Our work is anchored in Whole Systems Thinking, the Whole Person Concept, Neuro-science & Ancient Wisdoms
