A week of new beginnings! Weekly recap below.
๐ญ ๐๐ฆ๐ง๐ ๐ ๐ฒ๐ฒ๐๐ถ๐ป๐ด: Had a great chat with Steven Parker, the new chair of the ISTA – Global Learning Through the Arts board, and it was very valuable to have a deeper conversation and hear more about this exciting new chapter for the board of trustees.
๐ญ ๐๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฝ๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐๐ฒ ๐๐น๐ถ๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ ๐ช๐ฒ๐ฏ๐ถ๐ป๐ฎ๐ฟ: Ran our monthly Coliving Hub webinar with Joline Niewรถhner and Bjarne Zumholte about finding corporate clients in the coliving space. Their practical examples and straightforward way of thinking made for such a good discussion, and there was a lot to take away from it (even for me, someone not a coliving operator).
๐ญ ๐ฅ๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ผ๐ป๐ป๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ ๐ง๐ฎ๐๐๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ช๐ฒ๐ฏ๐ถ๐ป๐ฎ๐ฟ: Really enjoyed running Reconnect again with Kathrin David. Making time to connect to ourselves in the business of life is always an asset, not a luxury. Weโve got our August programme coming up too, with just three spots left. Curious about the programme? We have our free taster next month. Link in comments.
๐ญ ๐ง๐ต๐ฒ ๐๐๐๐ต๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ฐ๐ถ๐๐ ๐๐ ๐ฝ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ถ๐บ๐ฒ๐ป๐: Yesterday Jessica Breitenfeld and I ran a workshop on Authenticity at SOAR School Of Awakening and Re-creating. It was our first time working together –ย 10 people, one room, and a real curiosity about what it means to show up authentically at work. We explored that through discussion and role play, and Iโm looking forward to sharing more next week. Thank you to Deepika Bhoolabhai and Laura for the wonderful space and support.
๐ญ ๐ฐ๐๐ ๐ผ๐ณ ๐๐ฑ๐๐ฐ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป: Finished an Erasmus+ KA1 Staff Training training on the 4Cs of education with Euromentor SL today, with participants from Poland ย ๐ต๐ฑ, Germany ๐ฉ๐ช, Slovakia ๐ธ๐ฐ, and Italy ๐ฎ๐น. Creativity, critical thinking, collaboration, and communication really are essential… not just in the classroom, but in life too.
Here’s a photo of my participants post-training. As one of my participants put it, “๐๐ต ๐ธ๐ข๐ด ๐ข๐ฏ ๐ช๐ฏ๐ต๐ฆ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ด๐ต๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ฆ๐ฏ๐จ๐ข๐จ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ญ๐ฆ๐ข๐ณ๐ฏ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ฆ๐น๐ฑ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ช๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ค๐ฆ. ๐๐ต’๐ด ๐ข๐ญ๐ธ๐ข๐บ๐ด ๐ค๐ฐ๐ฏ๐ด๐ต๐ณ๐ถ๐ค๐ต๐ช๐ท๐ฆ ๐ต๐ฐ ๐ฆ๐น๐ค๐ฉ๐ข๐ฏ๐จ๐ฆ ๐ช๐ฅ๐ฆ๐ข๐ด ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐จ๐ข๐ช๐ฏ ๐ฏ๐ฆ๐ธ ๐ช๐ฏ๐ด๐ช๐จ๐ฉ๐ต๐ด ๐ช๐ฏ ๐ข ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ญ๐ข๐น๐ฆ๐ฅ ๐ข๐ฏ๐ฅ ๐ธ๐ฆ๐ญ๐ค๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ข๐ต๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ด๐ฑ๐ฉ๐ฆ๐ณ๐ฆ.” – Agnese, Educator, Italy
