Liberating Structures Masterclass

Why This Is Not Your Average Workshop

If you’ve ever felt like your voice wasn't heard in a meeting, or if you're a leader struggling to get your team to speak up, this class is for you. Led by Karie Terhark and Jeremy Kautza, this is a full-day, high-energy deep dive into the DNA of group success.

  • Level the Playing Field: We teach you how to create a space where "crockpot thinkers" (those who need time to simmer on an idea) and "microwave thinkers" (those who process fast) contribute equally, regardless of their title or rank.

  • Build Muscle Memory: You won’t just sit and watch slides; you will facilitate and participate in 7 to 8 different structures in real-time so that by the end of the day, you have the confidence to use them on your own.

  • Disrupt the Pattern: Learn to replace unproductive "open mic" forums with collaborative, structured engagement that actually leads to results.
