We humans love giving advice to each other because it makes us feel good and seems like the right thing to do. The problem is, however, that advice often creates more resistance than it does good, because we humans fundamentally like to come up with our own solutions. Therefore, it is often more effective to ask good questions that create reflection in the colleague and at the same time allow the person to decide on their own. In this workshop, you will learn exactly how to move from advice to questions and achieve stronger collaboration and results.
Professional, well prepared and eating their own medicine. Strong recommendations from me! - Niels Bo, CPO @ COOP Trading
Since 2016, Feedwork has delivered workshops to more than 5000 employees and managers in over 150 different private and public organisations.
Commitment and activity
Most participants in our workshops and courses say they feel very inspired and engaged during the sessions. We know that learning happens best when people themselves are allowed to reflect and try out new things in practice. That's why our workshops are characterised by high levels of participatory activity through exercises, case studies, group and plenary dialogue, polling and other engaging tools.
The theory is a starting point
As learning and management geeks, we keep up with the latest research and studies on learning, management, motivation, psychology, and organisation, which means that our workshops are always updated with the latest knowledge in the field. Theory is important, but even more important is that theory is translated and made to work in your everyday life. That's why we use theory as a starting point for our sessions, but together with the participants our main task is to translate theory into practical application in your organisation.
Training and practical experience
We know that practical exercises and the experience gained through them are central to building the skills of staff, so practical exercises and case work always feature heavily when we run workshops for our participants.
Focus on the small victories
Change often fails when we aim too wide with the initiative. Instead, we try to zoom in on the few and most important situations in your everyday life. Just where the healthy use of communication and tools can make a big difference. For some it's in department meetings, for others it's in the development process with their customers or maybe 1:1 conversations with employees should be your focus. We'd rather make sure that a few things work than that the broad focus falls flat.
No, not alone. Workshops act as elements of a culture change, but need to be backed up by day-to-day management, organisational structures and the general level of competence in the organisation.
In which languages are the workshops held?
Danish and English.
How much does a workshop cost?
The price varies according to the degree of customisation and the final design of the content. Please contact us for an estimate of the cost to your organisation.
Can a workshop be shortened to 2 hours or extended to 4 hours?
These workshops are structured so that the programme is adapted to 3 hours, as this - in our experience - provides the best ratio between time spent and benefit for participants. The concept has been tested and found effective, therefore it is also our starting point for recommendations to you. If you have very specific reasons for wanting to adjust the length of the workshop, we are of course open to dialogue.
What prerequisites do participants need to attend the workshop?
The vast majority of our workshops are structured so that you can get the most out of the workshop, whatever your level. So there's no requirement for you to prepare, unless we tell you on the phone.
How do the virtual workshops work?
Each workshop has a virtual twin brother. This means that exercises, breaks and materials are adapted to the virtual format. Our workshops are facilitated with a focus on engagement, which is created through exercises, polls and break-out room tasks. Workshops can take place on either Microsoft TEAMS, Zoom or the Demio platform.
What if we are more than 20 participants?
If you want to be significantly above 20 participants, we will typically make a special effort to ensure participant activity. This may be by having more facilitators, or by splitting the workshop to take place for smaller groups. Sometimes we also use a combination of (virtual) presentations for everyone, with workshops for smaller units, teams or departments.
