Agenda
The purpose of the training:
Working in a teams with the participants of the meeting, to define the term “confidence”, taking into account tendencies and attitudes in 21st century, identify stereotypes and attitudes that destroy confidence, as well as identify a list of attitudes that promote it.
Expected Result:
– At the end of the training, participants will be able to identify attitudes that destroy and build confidence.
– At the end of the training, participants will feel the need to trust and be the person they trust.
– at the end of the training participants in practice, in game exercises will be able to train the trust of their colleagues.
To achieve the goal, the training was built as follows.
The first part is structured in such a way that the participants conduct an experiment where they need to overcome their fear, based on the same level of confidence and trust in their colleagues. To do this, it is necessary for one person to stand on the table and, bending over backwards, to fall. The task of six colleagues, to hedge a volunteer and catch during his fall. This exercise helps to revive the association with the words “trust” and “distrust”. After this exercise, participants identify a working definition of the term “trust.”
The second part was aimed at identifying a portrait of trust in the 21st century, where the main exercise was the Profile of a Friend. In this exercise, the participants performed a page study on the social network of one of the coach’s friends, then the participants ’conclusions are compared with what the coach knows about the selected character. This exercise helps participants to recognize that trust in the modern world has an unusual form – we trust more in social networks than our near and dear ones. What in general has helped the whole team create a portrait of trust in the modern world.
The third part, which was based on the exercise “Trying social roles.” In which the participants are pasted a social role, so that he does not see it, and also, participants are given a set of cards on which nationalities are written. The task of the two teams, working separately to agree which of the participants of what nationality will be, what naturally is done on the basis of stickers with a social role. As a result, teams begin to turn to their experience and use the stereotypes and attitudes that have developed over time in each society. Through this exercise, participants identify attitudes and stereotypes that destroy and build trust.
Exercise “Babylon” in which two teams in complete silence draw a building that is planned for the project. To this end, each participant has its own part of the project, the task of the participants is to cooperate in such a way that the project of the house is executed correctly. At the same time it is important to take into account several rules: the task must occur in complete silence and the information that is provided to you cannot be shown. The teams themselves decide how to draw a project. This exercise shows, in practice, how trust helps build partnerships and expands the boundaries of both the team and each of its participants.
