Workshop - Doing What Works, Countering Work’s Bad Reputation with Jaimen McMillan and Carmel Murphy, Vancouver


Doing What Works!

A Spacial Dynamics Approach to the Forces at Play in Work

Public Workshop

with

Jaimen McMillan; Carmel Murphy

April 10 – 11, 2026

There is nothing quite as satisfying as doing what works! But what if everything you were told about how things are done well, was not only wrong, but was actually the opposite of how things work? What if one of the major causes of tiredness, pain, and even injury is doing things incorrectly?

Carmel Murphy, ergonomist, will team up with Jaimen McMillan, international trainer, to lead a participatory workshop where we will examine 12 of the most common activities we do every day. We will experience the dynamics of how results are actually accomplished.

Participants in this interactive workshop will take home a toolbox of practical ideas, effective techniques, and increased postural awareness they can apply in all they do! Come and join us in these hands-on explorations of the forces at play in work.
