 Greetings!
Insights Logo

The kids are out of school and summer is in full swing.  We've had a busy month at Insights Vancouver with contests, articles about Insights in the news, and exciting journeys of both the learning and scenic kind. 

So grab an iced tea and take a few moments to review what we've been doing and what we have planned.


 

IDA Refresh - September 27 - Victoria

 

This program is designed for Insights Discovery Client Practitioners who participated in the accreditation process more than three years ago and have a desire to 'refresh' their learning, and for those more recently accredited who want to add the latest information and models to their training and development programs.

This session will be customized to meet the needs of interested participants.   

 

This session is filling fast so if you are interested in participating please contact your client manager, or send an email to info@insightsvancouver.com or visit our Contact Us page.

 
Can't We All Just Get Along?

Shauna's Grinke, Senior Learning consultant, recently appeared in People Talk magazine with a thoughtful and provoking article on team building. If you haven't read it yet, the article is available on our website.


A Journey to a Journey

The 'journey' metaphor is often used to frame the internal Insights learning experience.  But sometimes, the journey is more than internal, as Senior Learning Consultant Cheney Creamer recently learned.  Read about Cheney's trip to Iskut, BC and her work with the Klappan Independent Day School on the Tahltan Nation in northern BC.

Last month we added a short video presentation to the Insights Vancouver website.  If you've been looking for a concise and colourful way to introduce Insights concepts and programs, check out the YouTube link on the bottom-right corner of our website.  

 

Accreditation Update - October 18-21

October may seem a long way off, but it's not too early to plan organizational development needs for 2012.  The upcoming Insights Discovery Accreditation session scheduled for October 18-21 in Vancouver is already over 50% full.   Registration closes a month prior to the session or earlier if all the seats are filled, so don't delay.   If you are interested in Insights Discovery Accreditation, contact us now to reserve your spot.

Team-building That Lasts

We are very excited about a recent article that appeared in the May issue of Successful Meetings magazine detailing how Unilever - a $40 Billion company that features brands including Lipton, Hellmann's, Slim-Fast, Dove, and others - used Insights to strengthen teambuilding and leadership development.  A reprint of the article is available on our website
