SUMMARY:Design Assembly Workshop
DESCRIPTION:We all have talents; naturally recurring ways of thinking\, feeling\, or behaving that can be productively applied.  We use them every day to achieve what we are responsible for.  The challenge is that talents are innate.  We just “do them” without thinking.  So it can be difficult for us to describe them to others and even see the value in them ourselves.  An example of this is think about the question\, “What is one positive word people used to describe you?” Many of us find this difficult to quickly answer. \nThe truth is in any work we do the HOW’s (thoughts\, feelings\, behaviours) always come before the WHAT’s (the priorities and delivery of the work).  What if we were able to accurately describe our talents so that it: \n\nShort circuits how your boss\, team\, and clients can get the best from you\nSupports how you best work together\, to make the process of design much simpler\nBe able to ask the right questions to get the best from others\n\nWhat will I learn?\nWe all love a personality test.  We start by completing a CliftonStrengths profile which helps to identify and describe your talents.  The trick with any profile is that it is most powerful when you understand how to apply them uniquely to you.  This three hour workshop is designed to help you discover: \n\nHow to get the best out of you Understand your 1 in 33 million point of difference.  Be able to confidently voice the unique way you approach your work.  What you are good at and why (something that can help boost your portfolio)\nHow to get the best out of others Increase empathy for others\, how we all do things differently and that through intentional partnerships you can make our work more impactful\nTools to get right information from those you work with through adapting your style\, by leveraging your talents and most importantly by asking the right questions\n\nWho is this for?\n\n\nCreative Directors\nDesign Directors\nAccount Mangers\nDesign Studio Owners\nPeople moving into managing leadership roles which manage teams\nEmployees across all functions and roles; whether it be designers or the teams and roles that support them\nFreelance or contractor designers looking to unlock natural strengths and turn them into their unique point of difference.\nConsider more than one person attending from your team to improve the collaboration between you\n\nWhat will I walk away with?\n\nA Gallup CliftonStrengths profile and CliftonStrengths Theme Report and CliftonStrengths Insight Guide\nA pre work quick course to debrief the results\nA detailed and personalised reference guide with insights including what you contribute\, what you need\, how you are best managed\nDebrief with a group of individuals with a process designed to create new connections\nA follow-up programme with additional resources and reminders to apply what was covered in the workshop\n\n— \nMeet your facilitator: Jason Biggs — The Strengths Collective\n\nJason helps workplaces and their people hum through coaching\, workshops and self-sustaining tools that help you short circuit the process and DIY. His method helps to identify and play to yours\, your teams’ and your organisation’s strengths\, have better\, regular and more impactful coaching conversations\, and focus on the important stuff. Jason has worked in the corporate sector for over 20 years\, marketing brands like NESCAFE\, KLEENEX and HUGGIES. He thrives helping people understand why they do what they do and to leverage this to get what they want. He’s a commercial guy at heart so that means delivering good business outcomes. In the last ten years he’s coached hundreds of people either as individuals or teams and worked with organisations such as Spark\, Nestle\, Freightways\, New Zealand Blood Service\, Chapman Tripp\, Downer\, Fonterra\, Kiwicare\, The Tile Depot. \n— \nThanks to our Design Assembly Partners BookPrint\, mychillybin\, Portfolio\, Rocketspark and Streamtime.\nNot a DA Friend? Sign-up to help DA help you!

This free event is for you whether you’re still considering diving into the world of freelance and looking for advice & support\, or a seasoned pro smashing all your biz goals… even if it comes with a side of imposter syndrome at times (amen to that one). \nThere will be cold drinks\, pizza and nibbles\, not to mention the opportunity to mingle\, make new friends and hear from a panel of speakers about the roller coaster ride that is self-employment. We look forward to seeing you there! \n\n\n\nGET YOUR TICKET HERE
