I used the all change module to help with a cultural change course I was writing for the organisation. It worked so well and really highlighted to the participants the importance of sharing information and communicating effectively. It was a challenge for me, delivering the session, not to explain why I was asking the group to do so much but the effect it had following was worth the exercise. I recommend this module to really get people thinking about how to communicate change.

I used this exercise as part of a Finance Directorate away day for approx. 50 people. Fair to say it got a mixed response but it did bring some much needed light relief to what was a fairly heavy session. I had to amend the debrief questions quite a bit at the end but it was a useful energiser activity that refocuses on the importance of resilience. I am going to try it out again with a few smaller groups but this needs a bit of preparation around how you introduce and facilitate the end discussion if you are going to use it. Would recommend that you give it a try

Notes:
This activity was written as a way to reflect on and move forward from the pandemic of 2020. However, it can be easily adapted and used not just to review a year, but, for example, a challenging experience or significant change that participants have been through. This can be a useful way to launch training around resilience, change or a planning session.

I used 'course introduction' with a group on a departmental awayday. This really focused participants on the rationale for the day and allowed the groundrules to be discussed in a way that wouldn't have happened otherwise. The 'expectations of each other' allowed discussion of acceptable and desirable behaviour to be clearly stated in a department where several staff members are overbearing and dominatiing in such meetings usually. The main content of the day was more fruitful once this had happened.

A great exercise to demonstrate our role in conflict with others. It’s designed to help anyone reflect on how to improve their workplace relationships, not just those who are in conflict. It is also a useful addition to Emotional Intelligence training. We do recommend that you practice reading Flenda’s Tale aloud a couple of times before using this exercise.

I used this activity to start to bring together key learnings, it was a follow on from Transactional Analysis, it was a really nice link in terms of the 'How i interact' to the 'Impact I have' with our behaviors being the focus. It linked well as the course was for a Sales audience who rely on relationships but often forgot internal relationships as they are client facing. The positioning at the start set this up nicely and I labored a little more on the fact it doesn't need to be a broken relationships, all relationships can be improved which set a different tone for some, a really nice view which went down well. Some great conversations came from it which we explored in the debrief.

I have been coaching a member of staff recently who is struggling to get to their goal. Part of this is that they struggle with thinking positively and can't see the big picture. Part of the coaching is trying to get her to look at the goal in a step-by-step process and celebrate the little wins along the way. This exercise has really helped her see that she has many wins throughout each day, no matter how small, and that in breaking down her goal into steps, she can celebrate the wins along the way. The handouts really helped.
