Answer: While both programs deal with Top, Middle, and Bottom organizational issues and are experience-based, they differ in terms of purpose, length, intensity, setting, and more.

The purpose of The Organization Workshop (OW) is to develop partnership up, down and across the organization, including with the organization's customers. It's a 1 or 2 day in-house program conducted in a classroom or hotel meeting room for cross-functional teams, for hierarchical slices from the organization or from units within it, or for specific levels from within the same organization, i.e. "Middles".   The OW can accommodate 20-200 people at a time.  Trainers, coaches and consultants can become certified to conduct this program. 

The purpose of The Power Lab is for people to understand and master their issues around power, to gain deep and practical knowledge about human systems, and to become system leaders. It's held at a retreat center in the US and Europe twice a year and, with some exceptions, is an open enrollment program where people from a wide variety of organizations and with a wide variety of backgrounds come together to learn.  The Power Lab runs from Sunday through Friday and is limited to 24 participants. All participants in The Power Lab work with a coach before, during and after the lab to help them become more effective leaders.
