Experience Design & Workshop Creation Program
You’ve got an incredible idea for a workshop - something you know will be mind-expanding and life-changing for attendees and career-defining for you.
You’ve got the subject matter expertise but you don’t quite have the “how to create an engaging workshop” expertise.
“How do I keep people interested and paying attention?”
“How do I turn my ideas into a workshop?”
“What should I say and when should I say it?”
If you've ever found yourself googling these questions, you're in the right place. I've been creating accessible, interactive, experiential workshops for 15 years for clients like PepsiCo, Labatt, and Lactalis.
My workshops aren’t Death By Powerpoint, sit-in-your-chair-and-be-talked-at workshops. These workshops get people out of their seats, sharing their stories, and then actually doing and thinking differently.
Workshop creation support for subject matter experts
When we're experts in our field, we're often asked to lead and share our knowledge via workshops - which is lovely and flattering!
But understanding how to teach a concept in a way that resonates with busy professionals and leading workshops that create lasting change - that’s a totally different skill set than the thing you're an expert on.
Being an expert on quality and assurance is different from knowing which workshop exercises will help introverts feel supported.
Knowing a lot about climate change is different than knowing how to redirect a group when things go off topic or get contentious.
And leading your field in digital strategy is different than understanding what to say and when to keep a workshop running on time.
Not to mention, creating a truly impactful workshop - the talking points, exercises that speak to different learning styles and personalities, pacing things - is very time consuming.
And you’re busy running your business, leading your team, or researching new findings in your field. You don’t have time to navigate the not-insignificant learning curve of workshop creation.
‘Experience Design is the empathic and strategic process of creating transformational experiences built on meaningful connections and collaborative learning.’
