Training in Hybrid Formats and Hybrid Facilitation
Hybrid formats are becoming increasingly important in the everyday life of many companies and organizations.
Hybrid formats are workshops in which one part of the participants takes part “in presence” and others online.
The challenge is to give all participants, whether in the home office or on-site, the same opportunities for participation and interaction. But how do people “on site” and virtual participants share the same work tools, such as virtual bulletin boards, voting tools, etc? How are hybrid breakout sessions possible?
To ensure this, a certain amount of additional technical and personnel effort is required.
In our hybrid facilitation practice (as consultants, we now regularly facilitate such hybrid formats), we have now seen all the relevant roadblocks – and would like to save you from all the mistakes.
We have
- Implementation tips
- Proven tips for the technical setup
- Tools that have proven to work also under hybrid conditions
- Things you should definitely pay attention to already when inviting and planning hybrid events
- Proven practical tips for hybrid and yet very efficient breakout groups
- Time for all your questions
- Example proceedings for interactive elements in a hybrid environment
- Time to work on your practical examples
