YPO-WPO Services
Education & Forum
Forum Training - YPO-WPO has worked diligently to continuously improve the models of forum. To that end, they offer structured, systematic programs that enable forums to launch, stay healthy, navigate rough spots, and build lifelong and life-changing experiences for intrapersonal and interpersonal growth and development. More detailed information on these programs is available on the YPO-WPO web site. Essentially, these programs are:
Taste of Forum - for new, curious, or unsure members and spouses who want to learn about the forum process.
Forum Fundamentals - the basic skills and knowledge to have when joining a forum or launching a forum.
Forum Moderator Development - whether the current, upcoming, or distant-future moderator, this program not only gives valuable tools for running the forum, but these are equally transferable to work, community, or home life.
Supercharge - When a forum would like a “tune-up” on process and protocol, or if the forum is experiencing growing pains, transition, conflict, or stagnation, this program sources the challenges by survey/assessment and the training is designed to re-boot the areas needing attention.
Hybrid Training and Retreats - Often times forums need a bit of a tune-up on their protocol, but would like to build in individual or group development. A “Hybrid” event blends the best of YPO-WPO structured training with the specific needs and desires of the forum members on retreat. The forum will strengthen its processes while building stronger and deeper connections with each other.
Custom Retreats - Retreats are the critical point in fostering a forum’s health while providing powerful opportunities to learn and grow individually and collectively. Retreats can range from deep, intense exploration and sharing to light and fun, engaging experiences. Whatever a forum’s preference for a given retreat, a custom experience that is unique to this group will result in long-lasting memories and often a life-changing outcome. An innovative and unique process Kim has designed and often uses in retreats is ”I”-Lab™. See below for details, as well as Topics & Events for a sample of previously facilitated retreats, events and seminars.
Forum Coaching - This is an opportunity for forums to get real-time coaching during an actual meeting. This process benefits forums that feel stuck on an issue or protocol, want to get feedback on how they are performing, or would like support on how to be more productive.
Education Events - Keynote or half-day events for chapters, networks, special interest groups, or regions that is specific to the personal or professional development of the attendees. Education Events equip participants with fundamental knowledge and skills warranted in a specific area of concentration. See Topics & Events below for a sample of previously facilitated retreats, events and seminars.
Seminars - When groups want to take an education event to a deeper level of exploration and growth, seminars typically span one to three days to allow for multiple learning experiences. Seminars deliver enhanced take-home value by building knowledge, skills, and abilities with opportunities to experiment and practice new behaviors that are applicable to all facets of work, family, and community. See Topics & Events below for a sample of previously facilitated retreats, events and seminars.

*”I”-Lab™ (a.k.a Inquiry Laboratory) is a unique experience used in a safe, intimate, growth-oriented environment (most commonly in retreats). Intra and Inter personal growth and inquiry starts with learning. That growth evolves from thoughtful and meaningful conversations that members have with themselves and with others. ”I”-Lab™ creates a place and the “space” to do purposeful reflection and then share those experiences and reactions with others. In this mildly structured, trusting environment forum members can explore the intentions of their actions and the impact it has on others. It is based on “here and now” learning and when done with full open and honest communication, allows each participant to learn more deeply about themselves and about how other people experience them.
