”Suddenly, the atmosphere in the room shifted. Short stories from real life was shared; when an important personal value came to life and really meant something. In 20 minutes, a deeper contact between people was established.”
I have seen it happen. Many times. But I have also experienced groups where openness and trust is low and I suffer at the cost of lost opportunities and lack of engagement.
I believe that I can make a difference in my role as a facilitator of change and development, by using tools and methods rooted in action-learning, co-creation and shared intentions. But more important, by being authentic and in contact I can open up and invite others to follow.
I want to contribute to a more conscious, involving environment where people feel trust, creativity and engagement. We need to connect as humans in order to tackle the increasing complexity in our workplaces and in society. We can have all the smartness, structures and processes in the world, but without trust, authenticity and connection, we will not succeed.
