Making Meaning of 2025 and Looking Toward 2026: A Collective Reflection and Intentional Preparation

As we close out 2025, this experiential session invites our Coaching and OD community to pause amid the pace of change and reflect together on the year that was. What did we learn from leading and coaching through continued disruption and reorientation? What worked in our practice—and what required rethinking?

Through guided reflection, interactive activities, and peer dialogue, we will uncover key patterns that shaped our work in 2025, share insights from across diverse coaching and organizational contexts, and explore how these lessons can inform a more intentional start to 2026.

This is a space to harvest collective wisdom, exchange real-world experiences, and reconnect with purpose as we enter a new year.

Together, we will co-create a shared vision grounded in learning, renewal, and aligned action—so we can meet what comes next with clarity, courage, and community.
