The provided Program Slides are designed for a full-day, in-person session. However, the content is flexible, and you can adjust the pace and delivery format based on your specific training needs. Here are some alternative ways to run the program:

  • Condense it into a half-day live session.
  • Expand it into a two-day learning experience with added time for practice, reflection, or deeper discussion.
  • Run it as a virtual session by adapting the activities and interactions for an online environment.
  • Combine it with other activities or related topics as part of a larger learning journey.
  • Use selected modules for short learning sprints tailored to a team’s immediate needs.

Yes, most core resources in the DIY Learning Kit are editable, allowing you to tailor the content to suit your audience and context. The editable resources include the program slides with facilitator notes, the participant workbook, the pre-program exercise, and the post-program practice. Components that are typically non-editable include the overview materials, select items within the facilitator resources (such as the resource library), and the additional resources.

Each kit is designed to support facilitators of all experience levels. It includes a program overview outlining the session flow and a comprehensive Facilitator Guide to help plan, prepare, and deliver the training. The program slides come with detailed facilitator notes, including suggested dialogue, activity instructions, and debrief points to ensure clarity and consistency. The resource library includes activities that enable self-reflection, peer discussion, and meaningful engagement to drive learning. Besides, the participant material reinforces the learning experience. All this material equips you to lead sessions confidently, adapt content as needed, and stay aligned with the learning objectives.

Absolutely. The kit is designed not only for standalone delivery but also to support ongoing learning and reinforcement. It includes post-program practice prompts, reflection-based activities, and additional tools like pocket insights and manager checklists, all created to promote continuous learning and real-world application. You can also integrate kit elements into follow-up sessions, coaching conversations, or team check-ins to extend impact over time.
