November 2009 - Development Day 21!

Development Days are highly rated by everyone who attends - come and join in the benefits with us!

What are Development Days?

Development Days have been running regularly since July 2005. The benefits we all get include:

  • a chance to sharpen our skills in working with groups and giving feedback
  • networking with consultants in different fields, leading to work referrals
  • a support group of peers facing similar challenges, sharing advice and ideas
  • a forum to try out new ideas and techniques and get high quality feedback
  • Development Days are fun! You deserve some "you" time!

What will happen at this Development Day?

  • We meet at 9:30 for coffee and croissants. Tea, coffee, juice, fruit and biscuits are available throughout the day.
  • There will be four "slots" - Dave takes the first one which helps everyone to get to know each other's work and style.
  • The other three "slots" are taken by other participants. You could deliver a part of a course to get feedback on it, run an exercise with the group, or lead a discussion on a topic of interest. In the past we've had topics on marketing & sales, session evaluation, MBTI, RECIPE cards, teamworking exercises, collaborative working, and many others!
  • A buffet lunch is provided by our excellent caterer "Nibbles". There is space on the registration form to indicate any food preferences you have.
  • You will be sent a video recording of the whole day so you can relive the good bits and capture the feedback you got from your peers on the day.

What do I do next?
