Concept Development and Facilitation 

How we learn, communicate and collaborate has changed fundamentally: Work and collaboration take place in multiple hybrid ways - asynchronous in time and space. To create meaning and be effective, all formats - from Workshops and Trainings to Conferences - need to reflect these changes and address them in their design and facilitation. To create spaces that enable new ways of learning, collaboration and innovation. And to create meaningful moments in the team and the organizsation to grow together and become effective.

How I work
I support my clients with co-creation and consulting to create purposeful, energizing and convincing tailor-made formats and spaces that enable new ways of learning, collaboration and innovation. With a clear intention, participative, energising, productive, connecting and result-oriented.

As well, I offer supervision for existing formats to improve Meetings, Workshops, Trainings or Gathering concepts to become more interactive, user-centred, convincing and motivating.

I also provide support with the facilitation and moderation of the formats developed. Whether it's a meeting, workshop or retreat - I guide groups through the respective processes and formats, structure them and make methodical suggestions on how to proceed so that they can focus entirely on the content.


Methods:
Experience Design, Design Thinking

Possible topics and challenges: 

  • How can we organize our team retreat in such a way that different teams are not only brought together, but experience a new beginning, creating motivation and energy for the common journey?
  • How can we make our member conferences participative and practical so that our members gain clear added value for their work?
  • How can we revise our existing mandatory training so that our employees don't sit through it, but instead receive easily applicable support for their real daily challenges through the training?
  • How can we design and run a series of workshops that not only discuss ideas and solutions, but also develop them directly?

You want to create a tailor-made format to empower new ways of learning, collaborating or gathering?
Or would like to improve an existing format to become more interactive, user-centred, convincing and motivating? 

Let's talk and figure out, if I can support you with this. 

During the design and facilitation process, I am repeatedly asked by clients if I could teach them how to do this: Designing an effective format, facilitating a group through a workshop, designing and delivering team interventions, holding the space for a team development process.


This is why I developed Let's do a Workshop,  a training that enables you to design and facilitate effective and energizing Workshops (including meetings, training sessions, etc.).
