Firesiders Workshop - Gathering humans effectively

Exploring gathering humans effectively with fireside.rs

Goodlife Collective is stoked to be hosting this New Zealand first! And to be collaborating with one of Aotearoa's most inspiring creative producers, who's also just a lovely human ...

Join internationally-renowned (& Welly legend!) creative producer DK, founder of fireside.rs which aims to unlock creative productivity by gathering humans effectively, for this journey through the shapes and ways that people converge, and deepen your confidence in designing purposeful human learning experiences.

A guided 90mins workshop exploring the array of models and shapes curated from the 100+ research findings with the goal of experiencing the following questions:

• what happens when we uncover the natural formats of being in groups and the reasons behind them?

• where are the parameters and elements to engender connection, conversation plus collaboration?

• when should different meeting formats be utilised and aspects like proximity / environmental factors be considered?

• who should be caring how we assemble others and lead in uncovering rooted biases?

• why does the shape of sitting and being together have an impact on how we act, our attention and how we belong?

• how do we intentionally apply the essence of being human to human beings?

Through immersive activations and in an environment of kindness and curiosity, participants will experience a direct understanding of a variety of assembly forms and how they impact creative / productive outcomes.
