Your Personal Response When AI Changes Work
AI change can make an experienced person feel pressure to act, know, defend or keep proving usefulness. Choose the personal question that describes what is happening to you.
These guides concern your learning, career choices, values and response to responsibility. The retreat offers personal facilitation and useful guidance; it is not a staffing, board persuasion or corporate implementation service.

Bring the question into a different setting
You may already have advice and still find yourself repeating the same decision or avoiding the same conversation. The AI and the Andes Retreat creates space to examine what is happening, with facilitation, useful guidance and other participants working through questions of their own.
The SoulSearching Experience is a five-day retreat in Peru’s Sacred Valley for 8–15 people. You take part in finding an answer that fits your circumstances and choosing an action to try at home. Support and accountability continue afterward; ask for current details.
Have a question about your own next chapter?
