Council is an ancient form and modern practice that elicits experience of community, encouraging attentive listening and honest and compassionate expression. It allows movement from a hierarchical power structure to a model where initiative, responsibility and leadership are shared.

This training deepens experience of this work, explores a variety of council forms, and addresses its value and use in many settings.

Reading The Way of Council by Zimmerman and Coyle, and some experience in council or circle, is prerequisite.
