Making decisions in a participatory, mindful and efficient way

Dear Adela, I felt very taken care of in your facilitations. Diversity is complex and is often not sufficiently taken into account in discourses, as diverse perspectives are usually not as present, speakable and immediately understandable. As a facilitator, you are sensitive to what is still unsaid and give it space with great mindfulness. As a diversity officer, it is particularly important to me that you proactively open, keep open and defend spaces that often remain closed when necessary. This makes it very worthwhile from a migrant-diasporic perspective to be present in spaces moderated by you.

I usually take a very critical view of seminars. Within the first two to three hours, I think about what I'm going to do for the rest of the day because I'm bored. That didn't happen to me once with you, Adela, in the three days. I knew I would definitely come back the next day: It was extremely interesting, eventful and highly informative and at the same time easy. I got to know an excellent tool with which I can work in groups.

I used SK right after the seminar in the practice group of my mediation training and my colleagues were consistently enthusiastic. It was enriching to see how, in the course of the experiment, the mood in the group changed from mutual competition and a "Oh God, how are we ever supposed to reconcile all this?!" into a lively, constructive togetherness characterized by mutual interest.

After the weekend seminar with Adela and Markus, I presented Systemic Consensing to my colleagues at Spieltiger and we used it for a joint decision-making process. Small groups worked out 6 different proposed solutions, among which we agreed. When we saw that three of them had a good acceptance for us, a visible and audible relief entered the group – there was a deep breath. The role as a facilitator was a challenge, but I also enjoyed it. Trusting the right parts of the group and going along worked well. Your workshop helped me a lot in advance to penetrate the topic more deeply and to gain my first practical experience. Trying things out in your own group has also raised some questions, which will hopefully be clarified on the deepening day. I am convinced that SK works and that the system leads to cooperative and unifying thinking and acting on its own. We quickly found a solution and I enjoy welding groups and teams together!

It was worth it. The board is now an SK fan. We then also used it for various process decisions. I noticed that I have a very high willingness to support the result if it was decided with SK. Even though I myself was not entirely satisfied with the proposal that it ended up being.

I was often very impressed by your communicative performance as a facilitating trainer. That has a very strong role model character for me.

Even as a seasoned facilitator, I have learned a lot. It's definitely worth it.

Groups that have established using the as a structuring process experience it as a great help to stay in the flow.

For me, it was noticeable at her workshop that social change in the sense of appreciative cooperation at eye level as well as a corresponding decision-making culture is a matter close to both of their hearts. With a lot of passion, wit and humour, both contribute their experience, interdisciplinary knowledge and skills. And above all: I had a lot of fun learning!

This was an inspiring and helpful seminar on systemic consensing, professionally prepared and conducted

The workshop was a great enrichment for me. I highly recommend this to anyone involved in group processes

Systemic consensing supports you, when the elephant has to pass through the eye of the needle.

The reversal, that decisions are no longer asked for approval, but for resistance to a proposal, impressed me very much and will keep me busy for some time to come

A successful example of lived, lively and self-confident communication.
