Establishing a labyrinth can be a transforming experience for everyone involved. The power of the labyrinth symbol as a form of knowing connects people and purpose with place throughout the process and beyond. Designed as a challenge, the team building task will require the formation of teams of mathematicians, construction workers and artists/designers - with each team contributing to the overall completion of the labyrinth. This is followed with two workshops, the first for everyone and the second for team leaders:

​

Workshop I: An Introduction to the Labyrinth 

​

In this introductory workshop you will:

• reflect on the team challenge

• analyse and interpret the structure and design of a labyrinth

• pose questions about labyrinths

• enact and respond to constructed scenarios based on current reality

• learn the basics of walking labyrinths

• walk the labyrinth with an intention and reflect on the experience

• apply that experience to yourself and your context
   

Workshop II: Bringing the Labyrinth into the Organisation’s Culture
 

In this workshop you will:

• experience several labyrinth walks for different purposes

• respond to those experiences using expressive forms

• learn some guidelines for working with labyrinths

• consider your organisation’s values and their evidence in its culture

• enact and respond to constructed scenarios based on current reality

• brainstorm ways the labyrinth can benefit the culture of the organisation

• reflect on your role in embedding labyrinth use into the culture of the organisation

• set up a sharing and support platform
