Virtual Sounding Board
Have you ever gone into an important meeting or presentation situation unsure of the reaction you will get to a significant message?
Have you ever come away from such a meeting wishing you had perhaps crafted the message differently?
In Hollywood they test out which ending to a blockbuster movie the audience is likely to prefer.
You don’t get a second chance to make a first impression so sound out key messages you want to give to your team, organisation or clients at our Virtual Sounding Board.
Give yourself a head-start, practice where there is no risk, gain new insights from others who attend, leave the meeting with a message you are confident in and inspired by.
Rolin is providing a forum to sound out and practise the delivery of your important messages. In a virtual meeting format, other managers from varied organisations, plus 2 of our coaches will hear you, give you the response you evoked, and suggest improvements. The more sessions you attend the more you learn from others as well as your direct coaching feedback. Natural situation led learning, to develop by doing.
How it Works
A maximum of 8 leaders, from non-competitive organisations may attend a Sounding Board. Total confidentiality is protected by an NDA.
2 Rolin coaches will facilitate the meeting, part of which is conducted as one group and part in breakout rooms.
We plan to hold these 2-hour sessions once or twice each month, you simply book your seat at the table as often as you need to.
200 CHF per seat
Design Thinking
2020 has stimulated the need for change. Many services and processes have been challenged. With the help of visual artists and coaches, problems can be unravelled, and new, creative strategies mapped out, in short timeframes, using a Design Thinking approach.
“If you can’t draw it, it’s not clear enough” I once heard a wise Design Thinking practitioner say. And it’s true! The creative influence of sketching out the solution to a problem, new product/ service or system, is astonishing. Working fast, using diverse minds you can unpack problematic realities, ideate, construct prototypes and come away with inspiring concepts and methodologies in just a few hours. Part two of this programme focuses on how to communicate that new idea upwards, sideways and downwards to implement it.
Since Covid-19 we are all rethinking how we work. To design powerful, sustainable solutions we have to think outside of the box and I know no better way than this, to quite literally pull the rabbit out of the hat!
Workshops can be run Onsite or Virtually with a minimum of 2 teams, each tackling a specific issue.
Other skills we support
The following essential skills are delivered in a creative, experiential workshop environment, either in person or virtually. Each principle is presented and practised using real scenarios relevant to your team. Memory Jogger video soundbites, to prolong the learning experience and effectiveness, can be made for each on request.
Leadership
Crafting a vision and cascading that down through your team and the organisation, determines direction, focus and results.
We focus on the clarity and compelling nature of the vision, then coach leaders in representing that vision with how it is communicated.
We are looking for impact, engagement and alignment. (2 day workshop, or 4 virtual sessions of 3 hours).
Management
The way in which we brief an individual or a team sets the tone for all that follows.
In this workshop we focus on briefing, coaching, feedback and group dynamics.
All practical work is based on scenarios prepared specifically for your managers, based on your goals, values and competencies.
