Poetry Clinic participants standing together with a collective poem

Wesley leads every engagement

You are bringing the poet into the room.

Wesley Robinson has spent twenty years as a professional poet and has led more than 500 Poetry Clinic sessions.

He brings a prompt, people respond in their own words, and the room may shape those contributions into one collective poem. Sharing is always a choice.

A typical Reset Session is 60 to 90 minutes for roughly 10 to 60 people. On-site is the default; virtual delivery is available by arrangement.

Is this the right fit?

A strong fit when

  • You want people to take part, not sit back and watch.
  • You are marking an off-site, cohort, transition, milestone, or gathering.
  • You want a facilitated experience with a clear beginning, middle, and close.
  • Leadership supports voluntary participation and the permission to pass.

Not the right fit when

  • You need therapy, counseling, clinical support, or crisis response.
  • You want individual reporting or access to private disclosures.
  • You need a passive keynote rather than a participatory session.
  • You require a guaranteed business metric or downstream outcome.

Three ways to bring GMTD in

Start with one room. Build a rhythm when the work calls for more.

01

The Reset Session

One team. One meaningful pause.

A single 60-to-90-minute founder-led Poetry Clinic built around the moment your team is in.

  • A customized theme and guided prompts
  • A facilitated “Heard & Held” poetry circle
  • One collective poem or creative artifact shaped in the room
  • Optional aggregate participant-feedback summary
02

The Culture Series

A quarterly rhythm of reflection.

Four themed Poetry Clinic sessions tied to the organization’s calendar, seasons, transitions, and milestones.

  • One founder-led session each quarter
  • Themes shaped with the sponsor before each session
  • A collection of the group’s permissioned creative artifacts
  • Aggregate sponsor summaries within GMTD participant practices
03

Embedded Poet Partnership

Creative care across the year.

A custom relationship for organizations that want recurring sessions and original creative work across departments or major moments.

  • Recurring Poetry Clinic sessions for teams or departments
  • Original poems for memorials, transitions, and milestones
  • A permissioned anthology of collective work
  • A scope designed around the organization’s calendar

Trust in the room

Clear participant practices are part of the experience.

  1. 01

    Participation is voluntary.

  2. 02

    Participants may pass on any prompt.

  3. 03

    Sponsor reporting is aggregate; raw responses require participant authorization or legal compulsion.

  4. 04

    GMTD does not publish, attribute, record, or reuse participant content without explicit permission.
