The week-long intensive seminar brought together around 20 team members from partner organisations in Graz.
The atmosphere at the coaching session was fantastic. Together, we tested the methods and tools developed in the Game of Change project for change management. The cooperation between the partners from three countries — Austria, Italy, and Finland —was incredibly rewarding, and a common thread was quickly found.
The group also exchanged valuable insights into Otto Scharmer‘s Theory U, a powerful approach to breaking ineffective behavioural patterns, encouraging empathy, and facilitating more conscious and effective decision-making. This theory has been widely used by political leaders, civil servants, and managers to overcome complex challenges and create innovative solutions. Naturally, it also features in our card game for the project.
Step by step, the project’s goal of producing a creative method to improve change management is coming closer to fruition. The results will benefit teachers, trainers, and students alike.
What else happened:
- Deep dive into the Game of Change: Exploring the fundamental principles, methodologies, and practical applications of the approach.
- Practical experimentation: Testing the project’s newly developed materials and providing collaborative feedback for their final versions.
- Certification of trainers: Preparing participants to apply the Game of Change independently in their organisations and communities.
- Connecting and exchanging practices: Strengthening the network of project facilitators and building even stronger partnerships.
The Train the Trainer coaching is already proving to be a transformative moment, and we can’t wait to share the next stages of this journey! The basic idea of the method, “Trust the process,” continues to drive the project forward.
