★ How astronauts build teams ★Those picked to travel to space are notoriously made of “the right stuff”. Having worked with Tim Peake on his book The Astronaut Selection Test, in this workshop I’ll use what I learned to develop your team’s communication & teamwork skills through a series of fun, but instructive "missions"."Enjoyable, relevant & it made everyone think""Fantastic, very engaging & interesting""Interactive, inspirational & applicable to the workplace"- WORKSHOP PARTICIPANTSParticipants rate the workshop an average of 9.1 out of 10. Over 80% report increased confidence in their teamwork & communication skills★ Challenging assumptions: what you can learn from space about innovation ★We all grow up with the similar ideas about how the world works. Time, for example, always ticks at the same rate, years are never shorter than days & you certainly can’t travel through time.Yet modern science has shown all of these things to be false. Space lends us a unique perspective to see the world we thought we knew afresh. Are you ready to accept the challenge of reconsidering your hard-wired preconceptions? Doing so can lead to finding out more about yourself & greater innovation within your organisation. You'll see clients, colleagues & competitors differently.★ Stars, Cells & Silos: what astronomers & doctors can teach us about collaboration ★Silos can be a big issue in many organisations - multiple teams working on similar problems without knowledge of what the others are up to. These artificial walls can lead to a lack of fruitful collective innovation. You'll hear about the spectacular results achieved when two seemingly disparate groups - astronomers & medical doctors - broke out of their silos & worked together. Their story illustrates the power of greater communication & collaboration & inspire those within your organisation to think differently.More: www.colinstuart.net/business★ Bio ★I'm an astronomy author & speaker who has talked to over half a million people about the universe, ranging from schools & the public to conferences & businesses.
