Nice idea! Looks like a dynamic and Happy vibe! Thanks for sharing Rob!

i’ve done many sessions with 150 pp, 100 pls, and 120 ppl.
If you have tables of 6, people will breeze through the builds and shares.
You can easily do skillbuilding that is meaningful.
I’ll do a tower, then 30 sec per person share
then mod tower to represent something to do withthe city the meeting is taking place with or where they are from 45…[Read more]

The booklet I have up at the moment is a single page (double side), Canadian Letter sized piece that goes in with the kits. Affectionately, it’s in the Table for Six format (two teams, A and B, participants 1 to 6). Files are available from my site

Thanks Stephen, I would like to see your booklet design. That would be very helpful! Manon.erkens@live.nl :-)

Stephen,

I’d be interested to see your booklet,

Did you find the quality of the faster tables’ models to be of good quality?

The question is whether one table was slower and everyone was faster … then the time given for the activity was too long.

If one table was faster and others were slower, I usually work with the faster table asking them questions or if there’s enough time … I give…[Read more]

Thanks a lot for your feedback, very helpful !
If we end up with another good solution, I will share it too!

E.

The smaller the groups, the smaller the time each group needs to share their stories, the smaller the differences…

Or otherwise: show a large timer, appoint a time keeper, or use a 1, 2 or 3 minute hourglass – that runs while someone is explaining his/her model.

Hi Joseph!

thank you very much for your answer.
It is indeed a useful pdf and site
I must find and something more for the Starter Kit and Identity and Connections

Thank you once more

hey Luca: it’s true – that specific line does not appear in The Republic, or in any of Plato’s other writings. Despite that, I have continued to use it in my workshop introductions, with the modifier of ”
attributed to Plato.”
A Google search reveals thousands of mis-attributions, including from prestigious academic journals.
That does not make…[Read more]

Hi
I found this site very helpful
http://www.gargoylesoftware.com/lsp/facilitators
They have a very nice pdf of the explore kit as well as other useful information
Good luck

Hi Manon,

thank you for your answer.
Actually, what I want is a official list of all the different bricks that are contained in the box, meaning a list with a photograph of the brick and how many pieces are included in the box…

This is information is very helpful when we have to re-arrange all pieces to the three kit (Starter, Identity,…[Read more]

I’ve done workshops with parallel tables using the Window Exploration Bag/The Serious Duck, and one of the things that I’ve found valuable for managing parallel tracks is to have bag labels – if you’re laying out 60 tables worth of Window Kits, and those kits come a printed page identifying the participant (Player 1, Player 2 etc), then you can…[Read more]

Hi Nikos,

You could check the inventory list of all sets at LEGO.COM (https://www.lego.com/en-us/service/replacementparts/sale?ignorereferer=true) At Buy Parts you can enter the setnumbers (2000414 and 2000430) and you get a view of all elements in the set, ready to order! I assume these are the lists of the most actual boxes. Hope this is…[Read more]

Hi Manon – See a case study of a very similar workshop (320 people – 1 hour) is here: http://www.meeting-facilitation.co.uk/conferences-and-events/index#imex-association-day

I ran this alone and it worked great. If you need any tips drop me a message – kindly Sean

Hi Manon,

a few suggestions:

– work in really small groups, so you can move on – instead of waiting for several tables to finish their discussions

– do not just set up a timeline, but use a visible timer as well – so people know when they should finish and you don’t have to scream to silence them

– make the challenges really comprehensive and…[Read more]
