"I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become." Carl Jung
Whoosh! Was that the sound of October racing by? Here's November already. We've just wrapped up another IDA session this past week in Vancouver, we've got a Webinar this week for those looking to use Insights Discovery as a coaching tool, and we're making plans and working with venues for Networking events in Calgary and Vancouver for December 15th and 16th. All this means that November is looking to be rather busy as well, but we're looking forward to the busy-ness.
There are a number of exciting developments on the Insights horizon, so watch for announcements coming soon. In the meantime, we've got news about upcoming Client Practitioner events as well as a couple very interesting reads. So take five, and catch up on the November news from Insights Learning and Development.

There are now over 30 public and internal Accreditations every year across North America, which demonstrates how many organizations are choosing to bring Insights Discovery 'in house'. In Western Canada, we always end up with a waiting list for IDA sessions, so if you're considering attending an IDA in a city near you, don't hesitate.
CP Renewals
A one-day interactive session for Insights Discovery Client Practitioners committed to keeping their learning alive. Renewals extend your Insights Discovery certification for another two years.
While each program is adjusted to meet the needs of the registered participants, a typical day addresses questions such as:
- What exercises can I use to reinforce key messages in a personal effectiveness workshop?
- What do I need to remember when debriefing an individual's Insights Discovery Profile?
- How can I apply other chapters in the Insights Discovery Profile?
- What is common, and different, as you transition from an introductory workshop to Discovering Team Effectiveness or Discovering Leadership Effectiveness?
- What's the difference between an integrated Insights learning strategy and single event workshops?
- What new resources might fit with the needs in my organization?
Calgary - Thursday, March 16th, 2017
