Happy Reviews

It's really a lot of content. I'm not sure I have any suggestions as to how to improve this but it feels like a lot is thrown at us in terms of resources, ideas, assignments and it's not always easy to navigate either what's been shared never mind what's most important

I was really empowered by the training and the facilitation because; (Firstly, and irrespective of prior preparations) I was unsure of what to expect and that often brings anxieties for me; thus, being given a platform to express my concerns and to question things, I was not connecting with (both) at the start of the meeting and throughout, helped me refine my focus; it also inspired me to design a piece of jewellery (across the day) which I used as an aid for self-regulating and calming. Also, the facilitator had to be professional, adaptable, open-minded, compassionate and accomodating throughout the session, to mitigate the various personalities and traits within the group... this often takes much self-awareness, understanding and mental balancing, to ensure everyone is kept engaged and finds value within the training. I felt this was handled amicably and fairly throughout, so, I am grateful to them for supporting us in that way, for validating and listening to our different needs which did not connect well with the training and for acknowledging where things needed refinement going forward. Lastly, the training and content themselves were inspired and creative, as there were different ways to look at practices which we may (otherwise) take for granted when setting up meetings (e.g. greeting peers), which some of the LoMo tools (e.g. using 'Signing-in' or Icebreakers) offered support with, to help set the tone and outcome for the day.

Really liked the content. I think some parts probably I could have benefitted from a bit more explanation, but I appreciate that it is only a 2.5 hour course. Facilitator was excellent.

GOod to share ideas not just ones directly from the course but from colleagues. the breakout rooms were an opportunity to really focus, you can get lost in a room too bif. Right balance of activity and slides and discussion

I think its always hard to do these sort of courses over Zoom - too many other distractions - but it was an interesting thought provoking course.

The course was good- long, but still the right amount of time to fit everything in

Good content - some audio issues in the morning but was sorted out

I enjoyed the training session and Nicky was engaging throughout, without putting individuals on the spot.

The pace could have been quicker, as I already knew quite a lot of what was being said. It was a useful refresher and I learnt a few new things, so definitely worth it but I would have liked to get through a few more things, such as nested formulas.

Very thought-provoking training that will be helpful in the future.
