WORKSHOPS
I customize workshops to guide & advise clients. Here are 3 sample topic areas:
GROWING YOUR IMPACT & COMMUNICATING YOUR VALUE
How can you describe who you are and what you do, so that it truly connects with your many stakeholders?
Through keynotes and intensive workshops, I help leaders and organizations (re)define and communicate the value you offer.
My workshops have helped teams clarify goals and values, reimagine ‘evaluation’, pursue new partnerships, understand data; craft better messaging… and much more.
Curious? Reach out. Let’s make sure you know your value, and how to share it.
“the presenter was absolutely amazing - so concise, packed a lot of information into an excellent presentation”
PROVOCATIVE INSIGHTS, PRACTICAL TOOLS: PROGRAM CREATION AND DEVELOPMENT
My unique frameworks help attendees rethink their work so they can enhance it, grow it, and/or reach more people with it.
In custom workshops, I help groups:
discover untapped potential, including (more) ways your work can drive positive change;
think outside siloes, traditions, and assumptions so you can reframe your work and discover new opportunities;
clarify and articulate your goals, values, and future direction(s);
identify new opportunities and collaborations that ignite growth; and
take bold action.
“We…found a perfect partner in Dr. Tasha Golden!”
Arts on prescription: Moving you from ideas to action
Drawing on my leading research and guidance in arts on prescription, this interactive workshop guides attendees in exploring this exciting model of care.
Through discussions and targeted activities, attendees begin brainstorming and mapping out local arts-health partnerships that can enhance and transform community wellbeing. The aim? To move you from “That’s a cool idea” to “Our community can DO this.”
“It took several years to find someone like Dr. Golden...”
Across topics, workshop attendees leave inspired and confident: with actionable knowledge, well-considered goals and values, advice from peers, and clear steps to create or enhance their services, product, experience, outcomes, or influence.
If you’ve felt stuck, limited, or mystified by the growth process, there’s a creative path forward. Let’s find it.
Let’s work together.
