What to expect
What to Expect
In this fast-paced workshop, you’ll see the behind-the-curtain moves of facilitating conversations about change. Anchored around one of our custom MURAL templates, the facilitator will show you how to prompt discussion, uncover issues, and shift perspectives toward taking action on change.
What You'll Learn
You will learn how to open up the discussion and lead conversations about change with your team. The Experimenting with Change template includes prompts that explore opportunities for change and encourage us to play around a bit with the problems we are facing before diving into the realities of how these problems might be solved. Informed by those discussions, we are then able to ideate actionable steps toward making these changes through the development of experiments to put to the test. As individuals, we all have different relationships to change, and exploring various ways to give change a try will affect how successful and sustainable our aptitude for change will be over time.
How You'll Learn
The workshop will be facilitated using a MURAL template with collaboration, input, and feedback opportunities. You’ll not only learn the concepts and principles in the session, you’ll also get to see how they are utilized in real-time. We won’t just talk at you ; you’ll learn through doing, working with other participants, and getting curious about how to practice what you’ve learned in your own work. There will be plenty of time for Q&A so that you can learn from our experience running hundreds of workshops at some of the world’s largest enterprises.

What People Are Saying
"As a venture-backed direct-to-consumer company, what we learn through customer experience directly evolves who we are growing into for current and new customers. As we mature to more retail presence in an unprecedented time of disruption and opportunity, every team member must be empowered with the vulnerability to iterate and actively listen for how to be present. Design thinking and facilitation taught by Voltage Control punctuates that kind of learning perfectly."
