I had no expectations of this course and even during it there were times when I was uncertain of any benefits. What became apparent, however, (and is still becoming apparent) is that the LoMo approach to defining and refining meetings procedures and associated prerequisites is in my experience quite unique, particularly in its relative simplicity—I've encountered many time/business management systems which provided little more than a teacher's guide to procedure(s) and were consequently both needlessly complex and unengaging. I think LoMo works!
I am really enjoying the course and the content.
Leanne was engaging and inclusive; ideas new to us were explained simply and in their context.
Loved the pace and that the facillitator kept everyones attention throughout.
Really interesting subjects around delegation and motivation
great thought provoking day seeing ideas in different ways positively and negative thinking about how to get the best out of everyone even those that don't want to !
I have learnt so much on this course from both a personal and professional view. It will be important for me to reflect back on the content to keep this in my mind moving forward and not to forget the new skills and knowledge that I have learnt.
Really useful day - especially sharing examples of good assignments
Good session and good to have some time out of my role to reflect, learn and develop
I was really empowered by the training and the facilitation because; (Firstly, and irrespective of prior preparations) I was unsure of what to expect and that often brings anxieties for me; thus, being given a platform to express my concerns and to question things, I was not connecting with (both) at the start of the meeting and throughout, helped me refine my focus; it also inspired me to design a piece of jewellery (across the day) which I used as an aid for self-regulating and calming. Also, the facilitator had to be professional, adaptable, open-minded, compassionate and accomodating throughout the session, to mitigate the various personalities and traits within the group... this often takes much self-awareness, understanding and mental balancing, to ensure everyone is kept engaged and finds value within the training. I felt this was handled amicably and fairly throughout, so, I am grateful to them for supporting us in that way, for validating and listening to our different needs which did not connect well with the training and for acknowledging where things needed refinement going forward. Lastly, the training and content themselves were inspired and creative, as there were different ways to look at practices which we may (otherwise) take for granted when setting up meetings (e.g. greeting peers), which some of the LoMo tools (e.g. using 'Signing-in' or Icebreakers) offered support with, to help set the tone and outcome for the day.
