Explore Conversational Leadership with a small group of peers

Introductory Salons are intimate, virtual gatherings—limited to 14 participants—designed as an invitation into the practice of Conversational Leadership. As the name suggests, a Salon is a space for exploration and experience; it is not a “training” per se.

Each hour-and-forty-five-minute session is dedicated to a single Element, explored through a blend of facilitator-led overviews and direct, personal engagement. Grounded in poetry, these sessions emphasize both the experience and the understanding of each of the Seven Elements through:

EVOCATIVE INQUIRY: Moving beyond the surface through facilitated overviews and small and whole-group reflection.

COLLABORATIVE REFLECTION: Small-group and paired exercises that allow you to hear your own and others’ voices in relation to the work.

INTEGRATED PRACTICE: Light assignments and the opportunity to connect with conversation partners between sessions to help you carry the work into your daily life and vocation.

These Salons offer a practical, “on-the-ground” immersion into what it means to be more authentically present to your work, your community, and yourself.

What Participants Say

I feel more openness to future possibilities in my life; less urgency, more excitement, more offering of grace to myself and more offering of my presence to others.

Participant, Fall 2024 Salon Series

I feel more aligned with what I'm doing in this season of life. I feel like it was exactly what I needed at the right time.

Participant, Fall 2024 Salon Series

My participation in the Invitas Salon has reshaped how I explore, evaluate and pivot in the conversations I'm having, both internally as well as externally... I am better equipped to listen and to be present, to make observations and to ask for input.

Participant, Fall 2024 Salon Series

The session breakout groups were wonderful, and as we got to know one another, I felt very heard, and I was happy to hear whoever was in my group!

Participant, Spring 2025 Salon Series

The container of the seven elements and the people it brought together provided a space in which I found it easy to be genuine and forthcoming.
