How does Imagination Coaching work?
The non-linear artistic process helps you to ‘see’ what you cannot verbalize. The images call on your creative capacities to address your challenges rather than simply think about them. The images can support the process of communicating and exploring feelings in ways you may not have done previously and free you from self-imposed limitations.
This creative workshop offers you a unique opportunity to slow down and take time to experiment in a safe environment combining the visual language of drawing/collage with the future-looking and positive intent of Life Coaching.
What are the benefits of developing Imagination in business?
Imagination is a powerful solvent of emotions, preventing individuals from freezing up under the challenges, for instance, of technological advances. Business needs creative leaders aligned to their authentic self, able to speak up and free from one-way streets of thinking. AI is not strong in novelty, human beings are.
Are there any artistic abilities required?
No artistic abilities are required. Art will be used as a means of personal expression to communicate feelings, rather than aiming at products to be judged by external standards. This means of expression is available to everyone, not just the artistically gifted.
What's the session format?
- Recognize - grow your self-awareness, release self-judgment (saboteur management)
- Reflect - raise your awareness of where you are in the journey
- Reimagine - play with the future by forward framing
- Respond - shifting from knowing to experimentation
What are the themes of the sessions?
A range of creative techniques will trigger your imagination such as: • Storytelling • Metaphors • Guided Visualizations • Inspiring Images
What to expect:
There will be 1 main artistic exercise, with each drawing being shared within the group for discovery. You will be invited to share your experience and to receive feedback from the group.
You will keep all your drawings as tangible, visible, and memorable artifacts of your experience.
How we will work together? What will our alliance look like?:
Confidentiality, what’s said in the room stays in the room.
No judgment, no fixing, no assumptions.
Be comfortable, be intuitive. Let your body drive the drawing, the mind will catch up.
Invitation to "stay with" - draw over, stand back, draw more, and give time for things to emerge.
Disposal of the artifacts – you shouldn’t get rid of your drawings, every drawing requires care.
Is any preparation required by the participants?
No preparation is required. Participants should not be aware of the theme of the session. Be surprised and activate the intuition is key to the success of the workshop.
What else:
Fun! Yes, learning with a good laugh and a sense of humour makes it enjoyable and more imaginative.

A message from Massimo Comuzzi – Artist and Coach
https://www.linkedin.com/in/massimocomuzzi/
My purpose, as both a life coach and an intuitive artist, is to create a lasting impact on the lives of others through my dual pursuits. As a coach, I am fulfilled when I see my clients navigating life’s complexities with clarity and courage. As an intuitive artist, success is reflected in my ability to convey deep emotional and spiritual emotions through my drawings.
Ultimately, success is about harmonizing these two passions—life coaching and intuitive art—into a cohesive journey that enriches my life and those I connect to.
A message from Catarina Diaz – Artist and Internation Relations
https://www.catarinadiaz.com/about
Over the years, my career has evolved to reflect my artistic purpose and the inspiration I draw from my surroundings and my inner journey. It represents my reflection on life, epiphanies, insights, acceptance of darkness, search for light and bliss, and aspirations. I want to inspire others to undertake their ever-evolving inner journey, always reinviting themselves and discovering their true identity and essence. I aim to invite viewers to contemplate and encourage them to embrace their unique perspectives as a sense of connection to something greater than oneself.
