Regenerative Agora
Regenerative Academy and Agora (RAA) Suites are designed for self-directed use within your organization. However, to fully realize the transformative potential of a regenerative worldview, we encourage you to engage with our Regenerative Agora Resources, a network of persons that are educated and experienced with the concepts in the suites.
There are two purposes we offer to do this:
Regnenerative Agora Workshops
Regenerative Academy and Agora Partners* are invited to attend free online workshops led by Regenerative Agora Resources, which explore a regenerative mindset across key areas relevant to your organization and its members. See the RAA Resource bios and offerings below, and the RAA calendar for details.
Suite-Aligned Consulting
Regenerative Agora Resources are also contractable to lead custom events for your organization, focused on the specific concepts of a chosen RAA suite. Refer to RAA Resource summaries below to see their offerings, and contact a resource directly.
* A Regenerative Academy and Agora Partner is an organization that has made qualifying bulk purchases of a RAA Suite licenses, including all organization members granted licenses to the suite.

What are the capabilities required to develop self-motivating individuals and effective teams?
If we can’t rely on Gold Stars and manipulation to motivate others, then what?
