This Is What Will Happen During The Global Circle:

Facilitators will do a brief introduction and review the purpose of our time together.

We will share our name, where we were born, where we live now, and commit toconfidentiality.

We will review the guidelines and how Circle Time is a little different than the 3-day workshop.

We will then have 3 minutes of silence where you have time to think about what you will share.

During the silence, reflect on these questions:

What are you feeling right now? What you feeling deeper under the surface?

What is going on with you? What is going on in your life? What challenges are youfacing? How are you feeling about yourself and your life?

What would you like for others to know about you?

Is there anything you want to let go of and leave in the circle?

6. After 3 minutes of silence, you will be asked to speak if you are moved to speak.

Guidelines for Communication

Use “I” statements. Speak about yourself only.

Speak when moved to speak. Do not speak when not moved to speak.

Do not fix others, i.e., do not console, teach, preach or give advice.

Leave time for Silence before and after someone speaks.

Be mindful of how much time you speak. Allow time for others to share.

NOTE: The facilitators may be more interactive than usual and offer suggestions and instructions due to our limited time together.

The Global Circle will be conducted in English. We expect to offer translation in the future. If you do not speak English, you are still welcome to be in the circle and soak up the CB experience.The Global Circle will last 1 hour 15 minutes. Those people interested may stay online longer.

Ongoing meetings for everyone who wants to stick with it and continue to bring the art of encounters into everyday life.
You are welcome to take part in the regular circle if you have taken part in at least one workshop or community building skills training. And want to stick with it. Because that’s what it’s all about: continuing to practice community building and incorporating it into everyday life.
We come together in a circle – similar to the classic community building workshop – and follow Scott Peck’s discussion recommendations.
Please send us a short email if you would like to take part: servus@ammerseeinstitut.de or register via this link: https://www.ammerseeinstitut.de/event-details/monatlicher-cb-circle
Frequency/participation

Once a month
Commitment: We recommend regular participation, but it is also possible to come only now and then.
Anyone who has already taken part in a workshop or community building skills training or who has received an introduction can take part.

Length of time: 5 hours
Cost: Contribution to expenses, depending on financial possibilities, 30 – 50 euros
Workshop format

Essentially, the format is very similar to that of the community building workshop, i.e. there will mainly be time in a circle and the group will be based on Scott Peck’s discussion recommendations.
We try out different forms of accompaniment. In addition to the classic form, the “Group of all leaders” has proven successful – i.e. a process without a facilitator or only with very selective input
Depending on the wishes and needs of the group, we also include exercises from our method kit, the community building skills training.
