Questions about the seminar content
Good preparation ensures that you don't have to spend the entire meeting figuring out what it's actually about. You learn to clearly formulate the goal, plan the appropriate moderation phases, and decide in advance which questions and methods will lead the group to a solution. This allows you to get started faster, stay focused, and ultimately document results that will really help in everyday life.
You will learn tried-and-tested group activation techniques that allow everyone to have their say without feeling pressured. At the same time, you will learn how to steer contributions in an appreciative manner, balance speaking time, and use appropriate questioning techniques to harness the knowledge and experience of the group. This increases the quality of the results and acceptance, because more perspectives are incorporated.
Then there is often a lack of consolidation. You learn to cluster contributions, clarify criteria, and prioritize using evaluation and weighting techniques. This reveals which options are truly viable and what the group is willing to take responsibility for. This shortens decision-making processes and ensures greater commitment, even when interests differ.
You develop the ability to break down content into clear steps and thematic blocks. Structuring questions and visualization make the conversation comprehensible for everyone. This makes it easier to arrive at viable solutions together, even when dealing with difficult topics.
You will work on your impact, using clear language, confident manner, and natural body language. Through practical exercises and feedback, you will learn how you come across and which adjustments have an immediate effect, for example, on your voice, posture, eye contact, or clarity in your announcements. This will enable you to remain calm even in challenging situations and guide the group reliably through the process.
