Can I come with my team?
Yes, with a proviso. The payoff in coming with a team is immense. You’ll walk away having shared a powerful experience with one another. You’ll have a strong common frame of reference, a shared language, and you’ll be ongoing coaches to one another. The organization benefits by having a team armed with systemic understanding and the courage and skills to drive change.
Here’s the proviso: In order to leverage the experience, the whole team needs to meet prior to the program to establish a learning contract. In the lab all team members will be working on their individual learning goals, experimenting and learning. People need to feel safe doing this in one another’s presence, knowing there will not be repercussions back on the job. Contact us if you’d like more guidance on this step.
I’m nervous about going.
If you’re nervous, that’s a good sign. That means you’re ready to immerse yourself in a significant learning experience. Just come ready to jump in and the nervousness will subside.
I’ve heard stories about The Power Lab. Are they true?
Some may be, some may not be. Some may be urban legends that have grown over the years. The value of the real stories lies not in what the person did, but in what the person became as a result of what they did.
Will I have time to do back-home business at the Power Lab?
No. The Power Lab requires a full-time commitment for the duration. Make arrangements in advance that will allow you to be totally at the program and not distracted by work projects.
I already use a coach. Do I need another one?
You’ll be amazed at how much value the Power Lab coaches provide. They work with you in the action of the program and are available to strategize with you, reflect with you on the outcomes of your actions, and challenge you. If you’d like your back-home coach to talk with one of the Power Lab coaches in advance, contact us.
