Seminar
Considerations
This
seminar is customized to best suit your organization’s goals and
culture. We can focus on a specific area if preferred: strategic
planning, scenario planning, problem solving, or creative thinking
skills.
The
results of this training are not canned, they will be your own. The
approach is strategic: if people support what they create, your
organization’s employees must do the hard work to build this
capability. It cannot be imposed or authored by others. We will work
together to build a capability which can meet and exceed your goals.
Participants
receive a preparation worksheet along with a study text two weeks before
the first seminar meeting. Most
of our seminar role playing exercises will be based on preparation
worksheet issues. We will simulate the situations participants want to
succeed in, and help them develop the necessary skills.
I
want to emphasize that each participant must take full responsibility to
provide sufficient focus and support to the training and their
individual projects so they emerge capable of facilitating effective
meetings. Learning about and practicing these ideas and skills only
during our training sessions will be insufficient to build the
capability your organization is targeting. Rigorous out of session study
and practice is required.
I
encourage you to find and work with a resource you can learn with. Your
benefit of our partnership should be measured by what you and your
organization can do in-house after our work is completed and it's impact
on your business performance.
