Workshop

Meeting magic: Convincing contributions that stick in the mind.

The important meeting begins and you are fully prepared. But as soon as all eyes are on you, nervousness takes over. What just sounded powerful loses its impact. The audience listens, but the wow effect? It doesn't happen. Your mind races, your body reacts: clammy hands, shaky voice, a sinking feeling in your stomach. In the end, you leave the meeting disappointed and think: "That should have gone better." Our expert Natali D'Abundo knows the problem from her coaching practice, she has already helped many people to find their personal performance power and will give you valuable tips and tricks in this workshop on how you too can improve your performance and experience personal aha moments.

Together we can!

Psychological safety in the team as a success factor

A strong team needs not only bright minds, but ideally people with different personalities. Studies have shown that the more diverse the team members are, the better it is for creativity and innovation. But differences can also cause friction: a flippant but well-intentioned remark can quickly be perceived as criticism, and misunderstandings can strain relationships. Those who recognize the potential of diversity and understand what each individual needs to perform at their best can specifically promote trust and appreciation within the team. A team becomes a safe space when everyone can rely on the fact that they are allowed to make mistakes, offer help, and accept help—without fear of evaluation or judgment. This psychological safety is the key to (team) success. In this workshop, you will learn how to break down communication barriers, promote trust, and strengthen the team.
