Is it possible to attend part of the day, or step out for a meeting?
NO. Our highest objective for this training is to create a safe space for all to reach new and profound insights. The training is highly interactive to include paired and group work. Departing the training room to take calls or attend meetings is very disruptive to this safe container and to partner work. Additionally, the training content builds upon itself, so missing a portion of the day will impact your experience. For all of these reasons, we kindly request you attend this event only if your schedule allows you to participate for the full day-long program. If your schedule does not support full participation, you are most welcome to join us for the evening dinner. We deeply appreciate your support in maintaining the integrity and impact of our Alumnae day.
