Liberating Structures Introductionary Workshop

We all spend a large part of our working time in meetings. All too often, these are so inefficient that we get annoyed about the time lost, become frustrated or even resign internally (“I don’t care!”).

But it doesn’t have to be like this anymore!

In our workshop, you will learn about alternatives that you can use quickly and easily to give meetings a purpose again and make them more efficient, goal-oriented and valuable for everyone involved.

As in all our workshops, you will experience, try out and reflect on the methods yourself. You will also learn about the philosophy and origins of Liberating Structures and why we need them so badly in the first place.

Daniel Steinhöfer I have been using Liberating Structures enthusiastically for almost a decade in my work as an agile coach in corporations. I see the concept as the way out of many dysfunctions in companies, in education and in interpersonal relationships, and with my German book "Liberating Structures - Revolutionizing Decision Making" I want to help spreading the concept around the world.

Erik Hogrefe Agile coach by conviction: I am driven by systemic approaches, sustainable work and appreciation. With Liberating Structures, I bring these values to life.

Carsten Sahling A corporate victim for many years. And he is always surprised at how playfully and easily Liberating Structures can break up encrusted communication patterns and sometimes achieve great results in an almost magical way.
