Phase 1 – Make the content accessible. SafariScreenSnapz007

  •  Don’t be stingy – share what you know, provide resources to inspire more creativity and s
    elf-development – then encourage them to share it back

Phase 2- Never believe that my planned learned objective is the only one. 

  • What I had planned – may not be the only lesson learned, by them or by me. Stay open and flexible to the opportunity to engaged learning in action.

Phase 3 –  Make room for “learning nuggets” to emerge and take shape. 

  • Creative thought and inspiration isn’t always pretty, smooth or even planned. Allowing room for the “aha” moment, then fertilize the process into a “nugget”.

Phase 4 –  Encourage “web-storming” those nuggets out!

  • Don’t keep it “sandboxed”. Encourage them to be Tweeted, shared via Instagram, or Facebook it and built on – But use common hashtag  i.e  #MentorSFCA to unify the theme

Phase 5 – Make it real-time visible as a group theme.

  • Encourage those “nuggets” get shared, but support the context of the workshop or moment using a “Trending Now” style dashboard such as the one here  #MentorSFCA 
  • Consider plugins or programs that allow you to track hashtags and user profiles. (I used Powr.io for #MentorSFCA and  @FVStrona)

 

 

Believe In Yourself

It’s not others that keep us stuck. It’s our own “fears of not being good enough” that seek to win out. Find your inner voice and let it out.
