Virtual Delivery: Online Workshops and Coaching
A virtual workshop is geared around delegate needs, so can be 1-2-1; team based or even mixed group. Many areas can replicate the face-to-face workshop experience, but a virtual workshop needs to be more punchy, lower in participant number and with frequent breaks!
We have focussed our virtual offer on the topics which lend themselves best to this environment, and we are rapidly gaining some positive results.
Insights Discovery: Virtual Workshop
The success of any business is built on the performance of its people. Insights Discovery helps people to perform at their highest level by improving their understanding of themselves, their colleagues and what this means for their performance. People can then easily adapt and connect with others, which leads to workplaces where innovation, creativity and productivity thrive.
Although usually a face-to-face workshop, we have developed a strong virtual workshop which offers the similar learning, awareness and performance improvement opportunities, but without being in the same room!
We use this everyday and it has transformed my team. By far the most positive and valuable Zoom call we have had... and we have had many!
Outcomes
- Personal awareness of my strengths and blindspots, and how I am perceived by others
- A personal plan to develop my performance which is appropriate and I own
- Positive, energised, and motivated attitude to do something with this and improve how I work with others
