About the session

We created an inclusive facilitation playbook as a tool to help our team of agile trainers lead engaging workshops with broader participation.

We’ll share a case study example of how we used this to design inclusive workshops for product innovation teams. You’ll get a chance to try this out for yourself, and then to apply these ideas to whatever challenges your own teams are facing.

A free PDF download of our research and ideas will be available to all participants.

Themes:
Diversity, Inclusivity, Facilitation, Innovation, Product, Discovery
