EXPERIENCE

Participants gather around a colorful table-sized Discovery Map that serves as the centerpiece of the learning experience. In a classroom setting, participants work together to explore content, discuss issues, draw conclusions, and develop new insights, motivation, and commitment. Competitive games, challenging scenarios, realistic simulations, videos, and online activities can be added to the experience to ensure long-term knowledge retention and influence behaviors on the job.
