Group Wizardry
Mark your calendars! Group Wizardry is happening from June 15th to 19th. This immersive experience will focus on three key topics: presentation skills, group dynamics, and leadership with an emphasis on Presentation Skills this year!
This will be the first time Michael and Krista will be presenting together in Group Wizardry, making it an unforgettable experience! Attendees will dive deep into presentation skills and walk away with a personalized coaching session on a presentation topic of your choice! Your presentation will be recorded and available to keep, allowing you to rewatch it and refine your skills time and time again, ensuring you get the most out of this unique opportunity. Coached presentations will take place on either Thursday evening or Friday of the week.
Influence Me: Leadership Podcast Feature
What’s Fear Got to Do With It Podcast Feature
In addition to enhancing your presentation skills, you’ll also get a “taste” of group dynamics and leadership. You’ll learn how to harness the power of non-verbal communication, which is crucial for influencing others. Plus, you’ll get to record and review your own presentations to identify existing skills and discover new ones to add to your toolkit!
Perception Camp
But wait, there’s more! Immediately following Group Wizardry, we have Perception Camp—a four-day (June 22-25, 2026), adventure that is touted as the “most advanced thing” Michael Grinder does. Trust us; attending this class in person is a totally different and unique experience compared to the online version!
Prepare for a full day of engaging learning. We recommend bringing a pillow and a blanket to make your comfort a priority! During Perception Camp, you will have the freedom to choose what you want to analyze. This could include:
- One person: Focusing on values, beliefs, and perceptual filters.
- Two people: Understanding who is likely to dominate or influence.
- Group dynamics: Exploring the interactions involving three or more people.
- A system: Learning how it differs from group dynamics, one, or two-person analysis.
Rest assured, you’ll receive comprehensive guidelines on how to effectively analyze each of these situations.
