How does such a method training run?
As already described – our trainings are always “tailor-made” and individually tailored to your needs. However, here are two exemplary processes for initial rough orientation:
Training approach
Interactive and activating methods (“action learning”)
We not only teach interactive methods, we also use them in our trainings! In this way, you learn from us on two levels:
- Theory (input)
- and “hands-on” application
“Practice what you preach”
We practice what we preach in this interactive trainig:
Alternation of concise input and transfer/”do-it-yourself” phases
Evaluation and transfer:
- Why our approach is working so well
In-depth explanation of the psychological and group dynamic basics, so that you understand the “in depth-mechanics” of large group interventions – and why they work so well - Which are possible applications and scenarios
- Useful variations and modifications
(always tightly related to the objectives and context of the subjects being discussed) - Q&A – rounds – so that all relevant questions will be covered.
Work on “real world” case studies
We show you real case studies from real customers and related effective methodological approaches. In this way, you will quickly develop a sense of which methods are appropriate for which scenario/context/challenge
It is not uncommon for our participants to bring case studies from their own job contexts. This is very welcome, because it ensures an ideal transfer to your own working environment.
This is why you should participate
- Customized and “tailor-made” training concept, reflecting the “real world” needs of the trainees
