It is an honor to witness and walk alongside these individuals and organizations, who co-created this expansion while in the practice. This is a collective offering of many hearts and minds. We are grateful for the willingness to explore new ways of being, thinking, and doing in the practice of the EEF. We acknowledge and attribute the expansion of the EEF to our Practitioners, Practice Partners, Pilot Participants, EEI Knowledge Curators, and EEF Coaches. Our gratitude and appreciation. We ask you to credit EEI and cite the EEF and the work that flows from EEF Practice Partner and Practitioner offerings (such as conferences, blogs, publications), to make it easier to join and trace the conversation about this work.*
