Landmark Forum: Mysterious training course coming to your office
Emma Reynolds

SEPTEMBER 20, 2016
IT’S a personal development course that promises “positive, permanent shifts in the quality of your life — in just three days”.
-• The intensive training is delivered in more than 125 cities globally by California-based Landmark Worldwide, which has a revenue of almost $120 million.
Landmark told news.com.au there was “absolutely no similarity” between the organisation and Scientology, that participants sign a legal document stating they are taking the course of their own volition and that a refund was offered to anyone who was pressured into attending by their employer.
Kevin*, from Sydney, had never heard of Landmark, but was unperturbed to hear he was expected to attend a training course when he started a new job. He did find it slightly jarring that his new office expected him to pay the $725 for the three-day program in Pyrmont, but he needed work. It was only when he arrived that he started to think his situation was really strange.
INSIDE THE FORUM
• Kevin realised he was at an immersive self-help program, which would run from 9am to 10pm from Friday to Sunday, with a return visit on a Tuesday evening, to which participants were encouraged to bring friends.
• The others in the room seemed to have more of an understanding of the content of the course, which combines Eastern philosophy with Western psychotherapy practices.
• One woman told him she was recommended the program by the real estate agent who helped her sell her recently deceased mother’s home.
• Participants are warned to stay away from alcohol, drugs and over-the-counter medicine during this time. Attendees are encouraged to take the floor and talk about their problems and how they could relate to trauma from their past, while the instructor helps to guide them with tough-love techniques. Tears are a regular occurrence.
• “Everyone looked sort of religious and intense,” Kevin told news.com.au. “The course was about addressing issues from your past, like large group therapy. Nothing to do with work.
• “Breaks were scant and even toilet visits were highly controlled.
• “For a $700 course, the materials and presentation were extremely low budget. One hundred and fifty of us were sitting in front of a single instructor. A very basic PowerPoint was used along with some very simple banners that displayed various ideas written in bizarrely convoluted language.
• “When I turned around I saw a row of slightly oddball looking people all just sitting and watching the room. It was later mentioned that these people were volunteers.
• Many prominent Aussies have taken Landmarks courses, including Gavin Larkin, who founded R U OK?
• “The instructor spent about one-and-a-half hours telling stories about amazing ‘breakthroughs’ people had achieved in the first 20 minutes of the course.
• “The course essentially revolved around people standing up on the mic to share whatever personal trauma they happened to be dealing with.
• “The instructor would then coax them into fitting their story into a premade set of phrases. For instance: ‘I’ve been pretending that …’ ‘When the truth is …’ The final statement in this sequence was quite bizarre: ‘Standing there, the possibility I am creating for myself
