Each Wonder Gathering is a facilitated experience that weaves art, nature, narrative storytelling, human connection, and evidence-based positive psychology into moments of shared insight.

Participants:

• Experience awe and wonder together — through creative prompts, nature-inspired reflection, or art-based interaction.

• Spot one another’s strengths — using positive psychology techniques that deepen appreciation and respect.

• Reimagine connection — exploring how empathy, tolerance of uncertainty, exploring others' perspectives, and creativity can become cultural assets, not side notes.

Every gathering is customized to your organization’s culture and goals — from 90-minute immersive sessions to half-day retreats — and can be held in-person or virtually.

It’s where human connection becomes your most sustainable performance strategy.

In times of uncertainty, the strongest teams aren’t just aligned around goals — they’re anchored by belonging.
Research shows that employees who experience awe at work can experience:

• Physical benefits - awe can reduce sympathetic activation, increase oxytocin, and reduce inflammation. It is also known to increase optimism, sense of connection, and well-being+

• Increased prosocial behaviours, such as helping, cooperation, and altruism++

Wonder Gatherings™ make that science real — embedding awe, strengths, and social health into the DNA of organizational systems.

Because the future of work isn’t just productive — it’s profoundly human.
