Back by popular demand, this is a repeat of the session held on 6 August 2020.

We are social creatures, fundamentally wired for socialising, playing and creating together. To release that energy into our meetings, we need to disrupt some conventions. We need to have fewer presentations and more conversations. We need to free people to move around, rather than remaining pinned to their screens.

We need to create a more level playing field in virtual meetings, a space in which everyone feels able to contribute, so we don’t 'get stuck listening to the usual suspects'.

In this 90-minute virtual meeting, an encore of the very well-received session in August, Viv McWaters of Creative Facilitation and Lee Ryan of Springboard Ideas NZ will bring the latest thinking and experiences around online learning.

MEETINGS THAT MATTER-HOW TO CREATE MEMORABLE ONLINE EXPERIENCES

In this online session, we will explore ways to bring online meetings to life by using stories, analogue tools and activities that are relevant, memorable and enjoyable.

The session is designed to be entertaining as well as informative, to awaken your curiosity to further develop your online facilitation skills.

We will explore:

  • Different ways of using simple online activities to increase participation
  • How to shift people's thinking
  • Ways to share and respond to personal experiences

Who should attend?

Relevant staff and stakeholders of not-for-profit community organisations in New South Wales who are facilitating online conversations, events and learning.
