  1. Raising the participants’ awareness of the underlying issues.
  2. Increased knowledge of how to improve their efficiency.
  3. Personal action plans to implement.

The Agenda included:

  • Participant challenges.

The workshop involved about 30 people in the main training theatre, with about 40 people online via Zoo. A big challenge was to keep everyone engaged and involved. This we did by asking questions of individuals online, as well as having a colleague with microphone going to people in the theatre.

Outcomes

Each participant shared their specific actions online.
