 | Experiential Methodology
CSL's philosophy of empowerment and facilitation can be summarized by the following quote from Tony Silard, CSL's Founder and President:

Note: In the United States and most Western countries, public benefit or social change organizations are referred to as nonprofit organizations. In most developing countries, the more common term is non-governmental organization (NGO). CSL will use the term 'Nonprofit' in this website to refer to either a nonprofit organization or an NGO. For international conferences, we will use the term NGO.

| | CSL has developed the leadership conference model using an experiential, participatory methodology. The primary goal is for the Non-Profit Directors to actively participate and share their expertise with other Directors in order to distill Best Practices in the field which they can take back to their organizations after the conference. All skills and leaderships workshops facilitated by CSL and local affiliate consultants are participatory and include a max. 33% presentation/lecture time and min. 67% time for experiential, interactive exercises including presentations, dialogue, Q&A, dramatizations, 1-on-1 interviews and group projects. In other words, if a session is 1.5 hours, at most 30 minutes of that session will be lecture and the other 1+ hour will be interactive.
- In the United States and most Western countries, public benefit or social change organizations are referred to as non-profit organizations. In most developing countries, the more common term is non-governmental organization (NGO). CSL will use the term 'Non-Profit Organization' in this website to refer to either a non-profit organization or an NGO. For international conferences, we will use the term NGO.
- CSL hires and trains local non-profit consultants in its experiential methodology from the city/country in which the conference is taking place to facilitate the skills workshops and conduct the follow-up Leadership Circles.
