The dragonfly is remarkable: its two sets of beautiful jeweled wings, allow speed and flight; its brilliant color enlivens scope; its exciting behavior summons love; and its spectacular aerial abilities ensure nimbleness. The Dragonfly Institute evokes lively imagination, graceful reflection, expansive exploration, and the ability to alight in the moment.
	Our Purpose The Institute is a habitat for learning that specializes in the sustainable evolution of organizational life. Our programs are unique in that they provide a place where we can explore new territory and the facilitator and the participants are respected as learners. It is a place where the learning strives to evoke deep wisdom while first considering the question “What Matters?” We focus this question on three areas of vital importance: 1. Employee well-being 2. A positive social and environmental impact 3. Financial and/or transactional success				The Institute was founded by Beverly Kimble in 2003 and specializes in:

		Why Learn With Us? …try to love the questions themselves like locked rooms and like books that are written in a very foreign tongue. Do not now seek the answers, which cannot be given you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer. by Rainer Maria Rilke		We specialize in the organizational learning necessary to create an “enthusiastic” sustainable business of the future.
