Here's what these leaders got from Ken's workshops:

"I watched and learned from a master about teaching & leading."
"Creating a safe space, identifying issues and establishing strategies."
"How to sequence tasks, so one door opens to another."
"How to take the "juice" right back into my own groups!"
"Bonding, belonging and community:how to forge friendships & cross bridges."
"Ways to prepare people to share in small and large groups."
"Ken's soft, easy-paced, humorous and nonjudgmental leading was superb."
"He holds space for listening and focuses group and individual process."
"How conscious communication in an open forum smoothes out wrinkles."

"Leading a workshop that was almost all process was totally new for me!" Susan was thrilled. Having just returned to Manhattan from presenting at Esalen in Big Sur, she had been experimenting with how little content from her book it would take to provide a learning platform, and to cultivate deep intimacy and inner exploration. "How little could I talk? How sparse could I keep the information? This time, I trimmed the content down to almost nothing so I could allow more time to focus on group process. The group shared deeply—in their journals, within the dyads, and in small and large groups. Although it was not my aim, I noticed they were all buying my books at the bookstore! Thank you! My way of doing workshops has been forever changed."—Susan Anderson, psychotherapist, workshop leader and author of The Journey from Abandonment to Healing, a book that has been compared to the ground-breaking work of Elizabeth Kubler-Ross.
