WHAT WILL YOU GET BY JOINING A FACILITATOR TRAINING? Playing Lean Facilitator Training is our most extensive offering where facilitators go through a full day of live training. Our members who have attended the training are uniquely qualified to turn a Playing Lean workshop into a great event. We have rich experience in using Playing Lean at workshops and conferences all over the world. With over 100 workshops organised and more than 3000 attendees, we have a lot of tips and tricks we picked up on the way. In this training we share all our knowledge on how to run an awesome workshop. We will cover how to: * Introduce Lean Startup before starting the game, using the official set of slides that you will get access to. This includes our input on how to adapt the presentations to your context, the player's skill levels and the time you have available. * Make attendees focus on learning from the game as well as playing it. This is harder than you might think! We will tell you how to set up the table, how to get attention and how to balance between fun and education. We'll even give you the stories that we use to make the experience great! * Lead the retrospective that follows the play-through, including different options on how to get the most of the post-game experience. We also add in exercises you might consider doing after playing the game. * More than that, we'll let you be the facilitator for a while and give you direct input on your own style!
