One Team Gov’s Global Online Exploring Future Leadership Workshop — Logistics
Find out more about the One Team Gov online global workshop taking place on 11 and 12 February 2020. We’re running this during the Fire Starter Festival 2020; celebrating creativity and innovation in Public Services.

What can I expect from the workshop?
The workshop structure has been designed as follows:
- One speaker talking about a topic and their personal reflection
- Shared discussion about that topic
- Final reflection — both as a group and as individuals
We have put time into thinking about what techniques may help us. We’ll be using Liberating Structures techniques to facilitate each workshop, based on a format previously used by Nour and Jason in “real life” sessions.
You can read about those workshops here:
If you haven’t been to a One Team Gov event before you’re in for a treat!
What will I need?
- An open heart, an energised mind, your best listening ears, and passion.
- A good, reliable internet connection.
- Access to Zoom video conferencing software. Some organisations block access to Zoom, and so you may need to attend the workshop on a personal device.
- A pen and paper.
- Headphones and a microphone either via your device or using a headset so that you can listen, speak and take notes concurrently.
- Some water/sustenance. This will be work for you, make sure your body is as ready as it can be!
We will send all the links you need in advance of the workshop through Eventbrite — so you’ll be able to test your access ahead of time . You’ll need to ensure you’re signed up for the workshop to receive the links.
