Darren Aitcheson and Nisha Joshi
The year is 2024 and we have technology at our fingertips that our ancestors could only have dreamed of, plus the wisdom of some of the most inspiring business leaders and writers to learn from.
"So why is it that so many organizations of all stripes are filled with disengaged workers, dysfunctional groups and wasted ideas?” (liberating structures.com)
If you’re bored with the same old meetings, status reports or presentations, come and join our workshop where we will teach you new ways to release the creativity that’s just under the surface in yourself and in your organisation. For those who may have already encountered some Liberating Structures, we’ll teach you some new ones which you’ve probably never seen or had the opportunity to use. And you’ll then get the opportunity to practice them yourselves in a highly interactive way.
If you’ve listened to conference sessions and thought “that’s great in theory, but I’ll never be able to use that in my organisation”, this workshop is for you!
