Cultivating Metaphors and Imagination: What’s in Your Box?

An interactive session inspired by The Little Prince*

In The Little Prince, a pilot sketches a simple box, delighting the child who imagines his perfect sheep inside. In coaching, we too work with what isn’t yet visible, emerging meanings, hopes, and transformations within our thinkers and ourselves.

This experiential session invites you to explore how metaphors reveal the invisible and shape the way we listen and co-create meaning. Through guided reflection, paired dialogue, and creative inquiry, you will:

– Experience how metaphors surface what words alone can’t express
– Notice how different “ways of perceiving” shift conversations
– Practice expanding a thinker’s imaginative field without rushing to explain or fix
– Craft your own “box question” to deepen awareness in practice

By nurturing space for the unseen, we honour coaching as an art of wonder, presence, and creative perceiving.
