Workshop Approach

The STARS © workshops are designed to both entertain and educate. When people enjoy something  they remember more about the event afterwards. When the event is educational, they learn more because they enjoy it. The STARS workshops combine physical and mental exercises to reinforce learning and use. Han’s “Aussie humor” generates an enjoyable learning atmosphere.

Workshop Selection

Clients can choose any combination of workshops to suit their needs. It is recommended that the Voyage of Discovery workshop be run first as this lays the foundation for the principles used in other workshops.

Workshop Prices

The workshops are tailored to individual enterprise needs. Our pricing reflects the tailored needs, the number of participants and the topics covered. We set attractive per participant pricing which is competitive against industry standards. The books are included in the workshop pricing. We welcome a discussion with you in order to understand your needs and expectations and set an agreed and attractive price.

Physical Exercises.

The physical exercises are non-threatening but introduce a little personal stress. They are easy enough for the majority of people to perform yet are very illuminating. They create awareness of personal behavior of selves and others, while emphasizing the need for teamwork. The types of activities generally used are not meant to be extreme; they are not like ‘Ropes’ or other similar activities (climbing, abseiling, rafting, hang gliding, etc.). While these types of activities are fun for many people, they can be very emotionally threatening to others or even impossible for some people. In addition, these types of activities rarely relate back to the enterprise needs, the lessons learned are mostly personal, rather than work related. STARS workshop exercises can include the ‘blindfold walk’, the ‘human knot’, and ‘walk the plank’.

Mental Exercises.

The mental exercises are the most important activities in the STARS workshops. STARS workshops are participatory, not just lectures. The workshops begin from a personal viewpoint, expand into team application, and ultimately into enterprise and organization wide application.

Follow-on.

One of the weaknesses of many workshop events is ensuring that the benefits and outcomes of the event are available and useful after the event. We use a variety of multiple media event capture, story walls, and other techniques, as well as providing follow-on services to support teams and organizations.
