Opening activities might look like:

Mindfulness and Presence: Mosaicli Facilitators (FAC) model vulnerability and guide leaders to notice “how they are doing,” effectively teaching a meditation skill that reduces stress and improves social emotional awareness and wellbeing.
Movement: With music playing, leaders get up from their chairs and find another table of people with whom they don’t know.
Mission: FAC shares about the session goals and themes
Momentum: FAC shares a personal intention and guides leaders to write their own. With intentions clear, FAC guides a "collective clap” that brings the group energetically into the first activity.

The ice-breaker

Foster personal connections and unite leaders on the shared theme of "flourishing" or "thriving."

Opening activities might look like:

FAC Rapport Building: FAC shares a personal anecdote. They might say something like, "my work load has been heavy? Can anyone relate? Well, I'm committed to taking care of myself one one thing that helps to feel my best is a power nap after lunch...What's something that has been helping you to flourish?”
Low stakes group share: In small groups, participants share their role at work, a role they play outside of work (ie brother, mother, mentor, etc) and something that’s been helping them flourish
"Flourish Feast:" The group adds to a Slido, creating a list of at least 20 ways to flourish
Flourishing rituals: Leaders make a commitment to something they will do every day for the next week to enhance their personal flourishing
