Training should be designed to inspire, motivate and guide participants to acquire new skills and knowledge and apply them in their daily work. Good training should also be interactive, allowing participants to actively learn and deepen their understanding through hands-on exercises. A training course must have a clear objective and be tailored to the needs of the participants. Read later in this blog about eight methods you can use in a training session!

The frequency of training depends on the type of work employees perform and the changes that occur in their work environment. As a rule, employees should receive regular training to ensure they have the latest skills and knowledge they need to do their jobs effectively.

What belongs in a seminar room?

A seminar room should have the necessary equipment to conduct a successful training. This usually includes a projector or smartboard, whiteboards, flipcharts, chairs and tables, and adequate lighting and ventilation.

At Satellite Office, the seminar rooms include flexible, height-adjustable furniture, fresh air and, in some cases, even access to rooftop terraces or wraparound terraces with spectacular views as part of the exclusive offering.

How do you end a workshop?

A workshop should end with a summary of the key learning points and a reflection on what has been learned. It is also important to provide feedback to participants and encourage them to ask questions or provide feedback. A good way to conclude a workshop is to encourage participants to put their new skills and knowledge into practice.

How do I plan and design a seminar?

A room that offers enough space for group work and is equipped with modern technology is suitable for this.

Eight creative workshop methods that will make your next event a guaranteed success!

Planning and delivering workshops can be challenging, especially when it comes to engaging and motivating participants. With the right workshop methods and the right seminar space, you can ensure that your next event is a complete success. In this paragraph of the blog, we will introduce you to eight creative workshop methods that will help you engage your participants and foster their creativity.

  • 1. The method of 6 hats: The method of 6 hats is suitable for groups of 15-20 participants with a fixed predetermined question. Each participant takes on a specific role and thus contributes to a comprehensive discussion. Six different hats are used, each representing a different mindset. By switching hats, each participant can change their perspective and contribute to a holistic solution.
  • 2. World Café: Das World Café ist eine kreative Methode, die darauf abzielt, eine inspirierende und offene Diskussion zu führen. Participants are divided into small groups and discuss at different tables. After a certain time, the participants change tables and bring new ideas into the discussion. Through this method, a wide range of ideas are generated, which are then brought together in a final group discussion.
  • 3. Open Space: Open Space ist eine Methode, bei der die Teilnehmer selbst entscheiden, welche Themen diskutiert werden sollen. After a brief input from a facilitator, participants can propose their own discussion topics and get into groups to discuss their ideas. This method promotes creativity and participants can work in a self-determined way.
  • 4. Fishbowl: Fishbowl ist eine Methode, bei der eine kleine Gruppe von Teilnehmern in der Mitte eines Kreises sitzt und diskutiert, während die anderen Teilnehmer zuhören. If anyone in the audience would like to contribute, they can sit in the middle and become part of the discussion. This method encourages active participation and allows each participant to contribute.
  • 5. Informational Trail/Marketplace: This method is ideal for larger groups. Various topics are presented at different stations. Participants are free to visit the stations and gather the information they need. Then they can get into groups and share their ideas.
  • 6. Lego Serious Play: Bei dieser Methode werden Lego-Steine verwendet, um komplexe Themen zu visualisieren. Each participant is given a certain number of bricks and is asked to express their thoughts and ideas by building models. This method promotes creativity and participants can present their ideas in a fun way.
  • 7. Whisper groups: Whisper groups are a method in which participants are divided into small groups of two to three people to discuss a specific question or task. Participants can talk and share their ideas and opinions in a quiet and intimate environment. Whisper groups are particularly useful when discussing confidential or sensitive topics. This method promotes collaboration and participants can interact on a more personal level.
  • 8. Station Talks: Station Talks are a method where different stations are set up in a room for participants to discuss different topics. Each station addresses a specific topic or issue, and participants are free to move between stations and discuss their thoughts and ideas with others. This method encourages interaction between participants and allows a wide range of topics to be discussed. Station discussions can also help broaden participants’ understanding of different points of view and improve their critical thinking skills.
