"Innovation Tennisballs" at the AoH training

In cooperation please each team develop a good method
that can meet this challenge.....

You are in competition with the other teams – the more  innovative and the faster you can do it, the better.
You should also agree on a ”time budget” – how long will your solution take ?
– and be ready to give it to the consultant when he or she comes to your group.

There are 3 challenges to this training session. Each team must make all 3 stages in order to complete the task. If you give up you are out of the game with whatever learning that may have given you.

1.    How did our team work work ? Did we practice the values / the cooperation principles that we decided for?
2.    What kind of leadership did we practice?
3.    Where were the transition points in our work ? What made that happen ?
4.    If we transfer this experience to our daily work as leaders, what possibilities do we see ?
5.    If you together look at the real situation of Wiltshire partnership practice – where are the real challenges ?– please write 2 of them down on seperate paper and bring them with you to the cafe.
6.    please give your other answers on this reflection paper to the documentation team.
