„If you want to run fast, go alone. If you want to run far, go together.“ This African expression has shaped me and had a significant influence on my path to community-orientated living and working. My mission is to bring the „WE“ into our everyday lives and interactions. I am committed to collective leadership - to forms of collaboration in which responsibility is shared and potential is developed together.
From 2002 to 2011, I played a key role in setting up the Kufunda Learning Villages in Zimbabwe. Kufunda is a learning centre that supports village communities in developing self-reliance and dealing with challenging socio-economic conditions. It teaches practical ecological and economically sustainable lifestyles so that communities can independently secure their basic needs such as food, health and education.
I currently live in Bavaria.

At the intersection of embodiment, activism and social innovation, I design participatory processes that involve body, mind and community in equal measure. This gives rise to lively, creative and inclusive cultures of collaboration in which people learn from each other, strengthen each other and shape effective change together.
I am a systemic therapist, trauma therapist and facilitator and accompany individuals, teams and organisations in change processes. I combine communication skills, compassion and resilience methods to create spaces in which trust can grow and people can develop their inner strength.
Nicola Kriesel
For over three decades, I have been weaving my knowledge as a lawyer, mediator and organisational developer into a tapestry that gives teams and individuals support. I see myself as a companion on the path to synergetic collaboration - a space in which the potential of each individual can blossom like a flower.
For me, trust and responsibility are not just concepts, but the foundation on which diversity and commitment grow. My heart beats especially for educational institutions: Here, I am passionate about the intertwining of inclusion, democracy and digital change. I not only look at the structure, but also listen to the rhythm of the culture in order to jointly find evolutionary forms in which strategy and humanity resonate in harmony.
Frances Blüml
As a visual facilitator, Frances accompanies teams and organisations with her pen. By visualising stories, perspectives and processes, she creates a common basis for all participants that triggers in-depth exchange and creates clarity. She uses a wide range of visual tools to design creative thinking and communication spaces for participants and trigger learning. Learning to listen to each other (again) and enter into a relationship creates trust in order to explore ways of acting together. Learning and unlearning happen in stumbling, in irritation and in what is set in motion as a result. Frances asks herself „What happens when we tell stories of a good and liveable future in many voices?“.

Diversity, accessibility & coaching
Diversity, accessibility & well-being
All people are welcome to attend this event - regardless of gender, sexual orientation, origin, religion, age, disability or social background. It is important to us that all participants feel welcome in their diversity and find the safest possible framework for dialogue, learning and participation.
The venue is barrier-free (step-free access, barrier-free toilet). Participants can specify their pronouns in advance or on site; these will be respected.
During training, we pay attention to different needs in terms of breaks, retreat and well-being. If you have any questions about this or other aspects of accessibility or individual needs, please get in touch with us in advance - we will try to find suitable solutions together.
Coaching
Following the training, we offer one-hour coaching sessions on the evenings of Thursday, Friday and Saturday (see times), in which participants who wish to do so are supported in implementing hosting methods themselves the following day - such as open space, circle practice or other formats from the training.
The coaching sessions take place in the group and are practice-orientated: The focus is on concrete preparation, clarification of roles, concerns and next steps. This allows you to immediately apply and consolidate what you have learnt.
Places for the methods on the following day are limited. Anyone who wants to can take part in the coaching itself - even as an observer. This enables additional learning by following, thinking and reflecting together.
