Karelian Pie

You know you’re in Finland when Karelian pies are served for breakfast.

Erik Mattsson had the privilege of spending a day in Finland with a global management team:

“This is one of my favourite set-ups for many reasons, not least because the whole world comes together in a single room. But also – as in this case – to meet a group of knowledgeable, friendly and curious people.”

During the workshop, all participants practised their own presentations – they delivered them, received feedback and gave it a second go (with me helping out on stage).

Five things that make this course different:

– It’s a two-step course: an introductory webinar (or two, depending on participants’ time zones) followed by an in-person workshop
– You work on your own presentations – not made-up exercises
– Live guidance during the delivery yields immediate results
– Watching your colleagues receive feedback is a powerful learning experience in itself
– The shared experience and plenty of laughter throughout the day help to build the team

A management team that does not communicate clearly loses credibility – no matter how good their strategy is, hence the focus on communication. The format is designed for management teams and leadership programmes.
