It allows participants in a meeting to collaborate and visualize contributions that can foster cooperation, maximize creativity and facilitate the peer learning process in a dynamic way.
It is especially indicated for online events
Training Team
It is easily adapted to the different contexts:
- Split teams: Two or more co-located teams collaborate between defined locations.
- Hybrid teams: One co-located team collaborates with remote participants.
- Remote teams: No central location, everyone is 100% remote.
The training team must analyze the target public of the training session and adapt the best format according to the timetable of the different participants.
For example, the coordinator of the training session must take into account the different Time Zones of the participants in order to get an efficient result. Here, in the image below it is shown how according to the different time zones, the format of the meeting should follow a hybrid style, as there is not a combination where all participants can participate at the same time.
Duration proposed
Any duration, as it will depend on the purpose of the meeting/training session.
