Let's misbehave! Print E-mail
Written by Christof Siebner   
Wednesday, 10 March 2010

In all kinds of trainings (but particularly Management Trainings) we are more often confronted with the request to tackle topics like "Avoiding (sexual) Harassment", "Mobbing and how to do that well", "political correctness" and so on. In some countries, there is a growing uncertainty about how to behave, how much and what kind of humour is still allowed, and when do I risk an accusation for discrimination or even harassment by making the wrong kind of remark or telling the wrong joke. It's not always easy to trigger an open discussion about that. I would like, together with you,  to experience one approach to get into it. And I would like to learn about your experience . Please, bring an open mind and your best bad jokes. No other equipment required.

Short Introduction to Corporate Finance for Non-Financial Facilitators - gain a basic understanding of some commonly used finance terms

This workshop offers a very basic! introduction into corporate financial statements and the typical financial lingo which is often used in corporate presentations and discussions in workshops (even in soft skill workshops) . If you are a non-financial facilitator/trainer and you have at times felt uncomfortable when some financial expressions have been used which you didn't fully understand or you would like to learn more about, this workshop will be beneficial to you.  I will cover the meaning and need of: Balance Sheet, Income Statement, Cash-Flow Statement, financial performance ratios, EBIT and financial risk in the form of a case study after some theory (please also bring your questions with).My goal is to make this complex content as simple as possible, to have "fun with numbers" and to take the "mystery" out of financial terms. Duration of the workshop: 3.5 hoursMinimum participants: 4Maximum participants: 12 Room: IndoorBest day: Saturday or Sunday morningEquipment needed: 1 pin board, 1 flip chart  Name of presenter: Heidi le Sueur (Phd, MBA)

Language: English

Sunk (ruined) decisions Print E-mail

Sunday, 31 January 2010

Workshop Presenter: Nelson Trindade

Workshop Facilitator: Nelson Trindade

Workshop Leader: Nobody (Experiential methodology)

Workshop Followers: Nobody (Experiential methodology)

(To lead I must have follower people (who are being LEADed by me, the LEADer), and here there are only a sharing persons group) 

Group: 8/10 EEE friends-partners

Time: 2 hours

Methodology workshop: Situation Playing

Type: “warm up activity” for this issue.

_______________________________________________________ 

Many times we take decisions that don’t work.

We fix and fix and fix and the  new-old decisions stay don’t working.

To solve the problem we must change the point of view and sometimes that is not easy, we want to keep old habits, but “who decide what always decide, will get what always get” (theory:  see YouTube Sociosistemas video :

                                                  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9FoTTaxg-o )

This is an activity to propose to live this situation and to start up to think about it (warm up activity). If the group don't change a blocked point of view, he will get "zero results", because he is in a clear "dead end way". He must think differently.

 
“Experiential Flip Video ™ Film Festival” Print E-mail
Tuesday, 26 January 2010
ImageLast conference, Jonathan Greenaway presented the workshop "Using Video Creatively".   This was an excellent presentation with very interesting discussion about different ways to utilize video creatively in the workplace. This year we would like to continue this subject in a similar workshop.

Within this workshop, participants, divided into teams, will be directly involved in the process of creating and presenting their own unique video. This format is a perfect example of a teamwork program which will require participants to cratively utilize their abilities, include the distribution of film spoecific roles and search for non-standard decisions within the parameters of a set time limit.

 Participant will also have an opportunity to learn and creatively play with the Flip Video ™ digital recorder. Using this type of digital video recorder has become more common and increasingly easier to learn and utilize within any formal or informal educational setting. This workshop is a 3 ½ hour session. Workshop Hosts: Michael Maina – Roanoke, Virginia (United States) Olga Kuprienko – St. Petersburg (Russia) Irina Ponedko - St. Petersburg (Russia)

Dynamic and Stillness: Discovering The Core


Leading effectively requires deep listening and strong presence. In this workshop we will listen to our body and to space through movement and performance exercises. These will increase our ability to stay centered, focused, and present in both ordinary and critical situations. You will discover your natural creativity through a gentle process of paying attention to the body, in stillness and in ordinary movement.

You will learn how to become aware of your body and use this embodiment to access deeper spaces of your consciousness, you will learn how to access fresh responses to the challenges of leading in the midst of the speed and fragmentation of contemporary life.


With regular practice of these techniques you will be able to carry an inner centering with you in your regular day, wherever you are and in whatever you are doing.


Time: 4 hours

What kind of workshop can I offer?

Workshops are given by participants. So, think about what you would like to share from your experiences, skills or knowledge, or what you would like to explore. Maybe you would like to lead a discussion on a certain subject, want to try out a new activity, or present a project of yours? You can get a sense of the range of workshops offered by looking at the 'previous conferences' pages.

What time is available?

The time slots for workshops are either 2 or 3½ hours. You may prefer to offer a shorter workshop of 1 hour.

What help can I get?

As last year, we offer workshop support. This includes: ensuring that you have the resources you need when you need them, and helping with time-keeping to ensure the smooth running of the programme. Support can also involve guidance or mentoring, and you are welcome to ask for help in planning, facilitating or evaluating your workshop.

When shall I send in my workshop proposal?

Please send in your proposals as soon as possible. Having the workshops online might inspire people to attend the conference or to give a workshop about something they didn't think of before.

When will my workshop happen?

As usual, we will work out the workshop programme together on the arrival night. This ensures that we place very popular workshops so as to allow a maximum number of people to attend. Another reason why we do this all together is to give the workshop leaders the opportunity to arrange their workshop in a way that works best for them. Workshop leaders get a "preference vote" in the arrangement of the schedule. Ideally, everyone offers a workshop and is a workshop leader!

What information shall I send?

To send in your workshop proposal (or if you have any questions) submit your proposal with the following information:

  • Title of your workshop
  • Description: in one paragraph
  • Duration: 2 hours, 4 hours.
  • Best day: Friday, Saturday or Sunday
  • For how many participants: maximum and minimum
  • If indoors - room size and set-up
  • If outdoors - kind of area needed
  • Equipment needed

Tips for workshop leaders (from the evaluation of EEEurope 2006)

  • Get into theme as fast as possible
  • Present the time schedule to the group, make it a group thing
  • Be punctual
  • Plan for ¾ of the time
  • Check out workshop space in advance
  • Mutual responsibility
  • Ask someone to be a timekeeper and to give a 5-10 minute warning
