Living systems need feedback to thrive. And yet, most teams have never really learned how to give it, receive it or create the conditions where it flows naturally.

Connected is designed around a simple insight: people rarely change through more information. They change when something shifts in how they experience what they already know. When a familiar skill lands differently, when a core value of self-organisation is felt rather than understood, when there is suddenly space for new behaviour.

This workshop invites experience, reflection and practice – together, in an intentional space.

This is for you if

• Your organisation works with self-organising or shared leadership principles
• You want employee voice to be real, not just encouraged on paper
• Feedback gets stuck at the surface or is avoided altogether
• You’re building a culture where people take personal leadership seriously
• You believe collective intelligence only works when people can actually talk to each other

What the workshop practices

Four hours of learning, in groups of eight. Experiential throughout. Not your standard workshop, but a learning circle.

01 – Active listening
A triad exercise that makes people experience what it means to truly listen, witness and be heard.

02 – Self-reflection & trigger logs
A reflective exercise on what triggers you at work and how recognising your own patterns is the foundation of personal leadership.

03 – Collaborative communication
An introduction to collaborative communication, with practical tools to say difficult things in a way that connects rather than defends.

04 – The art of appreciation
Specific, meaningful appreciation as a practice for team culture and individual growth.

What participants say

“The minimalism of the workshop’s structure belies its depth, breadth and scope. We all experienced quite unexpected revelations and gained invaluable insights. Not just into where we work, but into who we are as people.” — Participant, Connected workshop

“What looks simple at first reveals its depth as you move through it. I loved how the objectives became increasingly clear as we went through the process.” — Participant, Connected workshop

Who facilitates Connected

The facilitators who carry Connected best are people with a genuine curiosity for others and a natural feel for shared leadership. Experience in facilitation helps, but a feel for the role matters more.

As part of the Complete licence, we spend half a day together for the onboarding of facilitators. During this masterclass we go through the script, the design principles, the intentions behind each exercise and how to prepare for your specific context. So that you can deliver the workshop with confidence and make it your own.
