Equipping Table Guides for Success

1. Equipping Table Guides for Success

2. Why? The most critical determinant of a successful workshop Well-prepared table guides provide the capacity for practitioners to stretch and grow with larger groups and to develop new leadership The 2.5 day training provides some content, but isn’t designed as a “train the trainer” setting One of the most common concerns from practitioners and certified workshop leaders Table guides have a limited time tolerance for orientation to their role

3. Format Components to the new table guide training • Event-specific information from the workshop leader • ”Trail Map” for table guides and knowledge keepers to reference before, during and after the workshop • Video modules (total ~45 minutes) to provide a quick walk-through of the process and answer some of the most common questions/concerns • Accompanying guide to provide an overview of each component and ”helpful hints”

4. Availability • Trail Maps: • Provided at the 301 training to every practitioner • Available for purchase through strategicdoing.net • Video modules: • Will be available to certified workshop leaders or practitioners who have started the certification process beginning in June • Annual license to give table guides a code to register to watch the videos (tracked to deter inappropriate use) • Not transferable • Accompanying guide: • Will be available for download on strategicdoing.net with either

6. Building the Strategic Doing Network:Certifications & Affiliates

7. Certifications for workshop leaders Goal of certification: to get practitioners to “hit the street” and have a guided but authentic learning experience Standardized process allows all 301 participants to know what is expected before they finish training New monthly “nudges” provide encouragement to new practitioners with practical advice appropriate to their stage Now 62 certified workshop leaders, including our first in Europe! The flow through the pipeline has accelerated

8. Re-certifications for workshop leaders For those certified before the December ‘16 “re-set” (ie, with the old curriculum): • Attend a 2.5 day training (“301”) before June 30, 2019, at a 50% discount, and complete the new certification process Certification will last for 2 years For those certified after the ”re-set”(the first of these will be early in ‘19): Document use of Strategic Doing plus one of the following: attend a 301 attend the conference conduct two workshops and submit participant feedback participate in a new training offering author/publish research or case study Recertification fee: $125, good for two years

9. Affiliates A network of universities seeking to use Strategic Doing both internally and externally, develop new tools Each affiliate has a cadre of at least three certified Strategic Doing faculty (above and beyond certified workshop leader level) to provide an ongoing “community of practice” and adequate capacity Affiliates are the only entities allowed to offer the 2.5 day training Starting next year, all affiliates will participate in the annual conference, possibly with an additional pre- or post-conference session

Faculty development As of May 2018: 10 official faculty, who have gone through an “apprenticeship” style training process and are attached to an affiliate or pending affiliate institution 8 approved faculty candidates, who are certified workshop leaders and have a “portfolio” of using SD in at least 5 settings New faculty re-certification policies just approved Focus on ensuring faculty are up-to-date on latest developments, are actively teaching and are high-quality instructors New process for “pull” schools and prospective faculty through the affiliate process
