Duration: 3-hour workshop
About the workshop:
Jolts! Have we got your attention? Join us as we revisit Thiagi’s treasure trove of Jolts published in 2011. Jolts intentionally energize participants in a meaningful and purposeful way whether in a meeting, team-building session, or workshop. They also enable participants to creatively discover critical insights.
We’ve selected a variety to explore and made a few updates to reflect our current virtual environment. We’ll “kick the tires” and test drive some with you in the main room, breakout rooms, and on Mural.
You’ll have an opportunity to take part in a two-fold debriefing: from your vantage point as a participant and as a facilitator/trainer.
Learning Objectives
In this session, participants will:
• Experience the power of Jolts to unleash energy and foster engagement.
• Discover a variety of Jolts that you may use or adapt in your facilitation and/or training work.
• Explore how tailoring Jolts and adapting debriefing questions can make a tangible difference.
NOTE: This workshop will be recorded for distribution to all who register (breakout rooms will not be recorded).
This is a 3-hour online workshop. It will take place from 12:00pm to 3pm Eastern Time.
