Custom Facilitated Sessions
 
Custom collaborative sessions are typically 2-3 day, off-site working sessions involving groups from 20 to over 100 participants. Custom designed to meet the specific needs of the group, they are led by a WildWorks facilitation team, and are conducted in a mobile collaborative environment that is set up to enhance and complement the collaborative work. Custom sessions may be conducted as standalone events or may be integrated into an ongoing company initiative, or scheduled as part of a company's annual planning cycle.
 


 

Session outcomes commonly include:

  • A common strategic vision
  • Concrete action plans and defined accountability
  • Consolidated project plan across initiatives or functional area
  • Topical or functional solutions based on the pre-designed purpose
  • Rapid results

In addition to the measurable results our clients achieve, they also gain:

  • Increased alignment and ownership of business-critical initiatives
  • Better integration between initiatives
  • Improved conduct of each initiative
  • Development of internal capabilities to help manage change and improve operations

we ever thought possible, and we believed we
did it ourselves"

meeting."


Some clients that have benefited from custom sessions include:



WildWorks' Custom Facilitated Sessions follow a three-step process:

  • A specific session design is developed in advance to address the client's unique needs
  • During the session, a facilitator works interactively with participants to achieve their organization's goals
  • Work done in the session is captured in real-time to give participants a permanent record of the session's outcomes

Custom Sessions

Custom Session Design

The WildWorks Results-Based ConversationsTM approach is not like a traditional facilitated meeting.  In a traditional meeting, facilitation often involves a facilitator who arrives just prior to the meeting and then plays “process cop” throughout the day to drive the participants to a predetermined conclusion. 

An RbCTM Session is custom designed with your organization in mind. A  WildWorks facilitator meets with the client in advance to develop the specific exercises, work breakouts, teams and flow of the session.  This design process is as collaborative as the session itself and insures that the session achieves the clients desired goals and outcomes.

Session Conduct

The session is conducted in a unique collaborative environment set up by the WildWorks team.  Large rolling whiteboards, music and technology all contribute to the dynamic, engaging and interactive nature of our sessions.

Session capture

Throughout each session, the WildWorks team creates a real-time record that documents all the work created.  This record is preserved as a web-based format and is ready for delivery to the client within 24 hours of the session.
