Essential: rituals in organizations and communities

6 april 2023 om 09:00 7 april 2023 om 20:00

Rituals in communities and organizations: what, how, and why? A practical introduction to ancient wisdom for contemporary leaders and facilitators. This two-day training programme is for leaders, facilitators, and coaches interested in the potential of rituals for companies, communities, and organisations. Corporate Rituals is organising its ‘Essential’ basic training in working with rituals for the third time at De Heerlijckyt in Flanders, Belgium. An indispensable classic for anyone interested in the what, how, and why of rituals in the broader community and organisations. Whether it’s companies, organisations, public administrations, or local communities – we will share insights into the reconnecting power of rituals. And we’ll put you on the road to getting started with them yourself! Rituals are universal and present everywhere – however, in companies and organisations, they often sit without soul, forgotten in a corner. Consider the company’s New Year’s reception, an employee’s retirement celebration, where the focus is often on snacks, drinks, and a speech. Such moments have great potential for life-affirming power. The appropriate ritual makes that power visible again. Often it also makes sense to create new rituals. To reflect on, to give meaning and bedrock to drastic events and changes. Internally, but also as a result of external events. Like the impact of Covid, which is still deeply felt in lots of organisations and communities. There too, as in any situation of profound change, rituals can contribute substantially to processes of reconnection and healing.

About rituals

Rituals are sequential actions that validate a meaningful moment or event and are often significant and transformative. Rituals take place out of the ordinary, in a sacred time/environment, usually following a repeated pattern. Their power lies in the intention from which they start and their ability to connect the individual and the collective, the seen and the unseen. The experience of a ritual is often a profound inner process. Sharing it in a group strengthens and anchors that personal process and creates a mutual connection at a deep level. So that the energy of the group can also change, transform and heal. Rituals reinforce and allow people to experience being part of a greater whole, making a ritual a sacred event. Corporate Rituals deploys rituals and ancient wisdom to make the deeper connections between personal life, community life, and the larger living whole more visible, stronger, and, where necessary restoring it. The focus is on collective contexts where people live and work together.

Content of this two-day training

We want to share our expertise with you during this two-day training program. We take you into the ancient and alive world of rituals. Step by step, we embark on a journey of discovery together, where co-creation and experience have an important place. On the first day, we will give you a taste of the broad spectrum of all possible forms of rituals from a diversity of perspectives. We will inspire you with wisdom from ancient traditions such as Shamanism and contemporary insights from, for example, anthropology. You will also have ample opportunity to experience what a ritual is and what it does to you. You will discover what role rituals already play in your life. And we will also unravel the code for you: how does a ritual come into being? What aspects are important? What are the magical ingredients? What structure can help you? How do you create your own ritual? On the second day, you’ll mainly be working on your own ritual, starting from real-life situations, proposed by yourself or your colleagues. We will guide you in building your own anchors and forms. Fed with the insights you have gained, you will create and perform a new ritual together. In the safe context of this training, with your co-participants as a life audience.

For whom

Leaders and magicians, process facilitators, team and organisational coaches, co-creative facilitators, personal coaches, therapists, and anyone who wants to explore the richness of rituals and ancient wisdom and integrate it into their daily (professional) practice.
