Description

This is my first solo show and I speak about the science behind workshop design and facilitation. Namely, I share how I use evidence from behavioural economics to come up with ideas that will help participants to experience meaningful progress during their working session. Before founding idayz I had a career in higher education – as a researcher, lecturer and strategic advisor. From all these roles I learned about human behaviour and how to best facilitate their collaboration. In the show, I share the rationale behind my workshop design and some of my favourite exercises and I answer my own questions: How can we help participants to open up and engage despite hierarchical differences? How can we use the energy of nay-sayers for creative ideation and is courage one of the most important skills of a successful facilitator? Don’t miss the part when I explain why I bring M&Ms to every meeting Questions and Answers[1:59] What would I be if I was a hashtag?[3:30] Why do I call myself a “behavioural economist” and what does that mean?[6:33] What’s my story? How did I get from a career in higher education to become a facilitator? [10:59] Why did I call my business idayz?[15:21] What have I learned from my previous roles in workshop design and facilitation?[22:13] How do I use insights from behavioural economics to design workshops?[29:22] What’s my favourite exercise and how do I use behavioural insights to design exercises?[30:55] Why do I bring M&Ms to every meeting and workshop?[32:54] What are the most powerful check-in exercises I use and why do they work from a behavioural perspective?[41:45] Why do I brainstorm failures instead of successes?[43:00] How do I help participants to cluster their ideas after ideation?[45:41] Why do workshops fail?[46:26] What shall my listener who missed the entire show remember?
