STARTING TO CREATE

Keywords: Generating Trust; Communication; Teamwork; Development of Activities
Objectives: Strengthening teamwork.
Developing the objectives and dynamics to be used in different activities, proposals or projects.
Identifying the qualities of each person in the group.
Target group: Groups of 5-15 participants ideally from multidisciplinary working groups and already working together.
Duration: 60 – 120 minutes
Methodology step-by- step: 1. Organise the time, date and location of the meeting.
2. If the group is large, divide the participants into smaller groups, with a spokesperson for each question ie. not one spokesperson for all the questions.
3. Present questions to the group or groups. Questions could include:
What is the topic we are going to work on?
What are our objectives?
Which part of the population do we want to reach?
What activities do we want to carry out and why?
4. The groups should work separately on each question for 10 minutes, drawing a maximum of three conclusions for each of the questions, which they then present to the whole group.
5. Once each of the conclusions of the different groups has been presented, the most common conclusions of all the groups will be assessed as a whole.
6. The group works together to set a roadmap using the objectives, activities, strengths and weaknesses highlighted by the above exercise.

NOTE: It is necessary to call a new meeting to define the calendar and distribution of work (commissions or subgroups). This is not a one-time activity, but a work method that is chosen and implemented regularly in work meetings.
Resources needed: A large enclosed space, such as a meeting room, with tables and chairs

Challenges: This methodology can work on different levels and with different groups who require development and coordination of their activities, proposals or projects.
This method varies because it depends on the needs and demands encountered in the evolution and programming of the activities.
