Pain Points & Longings Exercise
In Make Work Matter: Your Guide to Meaningful Work in a Changing World, Michaela O’Donnell describes the new world of work and how it can leave us feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and even lonely. Pressing into these feelings and discovering what lies beneath them is the first step to building “a new toolkit” for our work. This step helps us define where we are now on our journey. In this exercise, you’ll identify the current pain points in your work so that you can uncover what you’re truly longing for.

Cohorts
Cohort Experiences
Here at the De Pree Center, we believe that some of the most transformative learning happens in the company of others. That’s why we offer cohort experiences—small groups of people on a journey together under the care of a trained guide. Beginning in 2023, we will offer three cohorts: Road Ahead, Go the Distance, and Third Third Flourishing.
