This workshop is based on our experience working with people in many kinds of companies, organizations and communities who are not only trying to improve results, but the culture and conversations from which those results are born.
Most often, attempts to change an organization’s structure or process succeed only to the extent that they take root in the way people relate to one another and to the larger purpose that brings them together. Therefore, if you are working for change at any level, you face the challenges of working with groups of people.
In this one-day workshop, you will experience three methods or tools that can help move a group from debate to dialog, from repeating patterns to creating something new.
You are invited to step away for a day of working and learning with a wonderfully diverse group of people. The workshop will mix Midwest UX attendees – design professionals from all over the region – with people from the Pittsburgh area who work for change in companies, organizations, schools, neighborhoods, schools, and larger systems. We are planning activities so you not only learn from the material we offer, but from the experience of learning as a group.
Through activities and discussion, you will learn a mix of tools for different aspects of facilitated group work. These include:
Prerequisites: Please wear comfortable clothes and bring a notebook!
