About the workshop

All around we’re experiencing major changes to every aspect of our environments - to our communities, how we work, the tools and technology we use, and so on. Yet, most people struggle with being open to, embracing, and adapting to change. This poses a challenge for us facilitators who lead change initiatives with clients.

The goal of this combination workshop-mastermind session is to build our collective knowledge and confidence in encouraging reflection, so we can better prime our clients for growth and change. The workshop component will share some of Barometer XP’s activities and strategies to help people practice and get more comfortable with reflection. The mastermind piece will source best practices and lessons learned from the community.

Learning Objectives 

In this session, participants will:

  • Explore why reflection is so critical, and how to craft great reflective questions.
  • Practice applying self and situational awareness by playing a few games.
  • Collect best practices and lessons learned for how to encourage reflection in different change initiatives.

NOTE: This workshop will be recorded for distribution to all who register (breakout rooms will not be recorded).

This is a 3 hour workshop. It will take place from 12:00pm to 3:00pm EST.

Speaker:

Alex Suchman (she/her) is cofounder and CEO of Barometer XP, a company that drives real behavior and culture change through games and play.

After a decade of experience working in operations and organizational development, Alex realized that building stronger emotional intelligence and interpersonal skills are key to organizational success. She noticed a gap in the industry for solutions that bridge the knowledge-to-action gap, and discovered game-based experiential learning for teams as an effective tool.

Prior to Barometer XP, Alex founded AIS Collaborations, a consulting firm that helped small organizations through simple systems, stronger organizing techniques, and better planning.
