“We know how to create spaces that will help people have a greater impact for animals and people. That is our mission.”
Great Remote Workshops
When you have a workshop - remotely or in-person - you always want it to be engaging and productive. However, it is easier for participants to get bored, check emails, or generally disengage when everyone is behind a computer. It does not have to be that way!
Not only can remote workshops be interactive and fun, with the right planning and facilitation they can lead to real and meaningful results.
Impact by Design has been working remotely for years, and we focus on making in-person and remote workshops highly engaging, productive, and driven towards desired outcomes. This interactive training will introduce you to some of our favorite activities and techniques for helping people come together to do significant planning and decision-making. You will find the insights and information you need to help make remote workshops a success.
During this interactive 90-minute training, you can expect to:
Learn about the essential elements of good remote workshop preparation and design
Get ideas about specific activities and facilitation techniques that work well in a remote context
Share your own remote workshop experiences and ideas and learn from others
Identify new tips you can use right away to make your remote workshops even better
Ask questions relative to your own work and experiences
