Three-day collaborative workshop

Context
Slow Food Italia Aps started a training program for new local leaders, who will share the Association’s values and vision in an actionable way. The purpose is to deeply engage activists and teach them how to activate and develop regional projects with the ultimate goal of “being multitude”, which is the core of the new dimension that Slow Food wants to represent globally.

Process
We designed a collaborative workshop with thinking models, specific contents and practical tools, recognizing the main feature of the different geographical areas and simulating dynamic and synergical work. In this way, we made participants aware of their own operational capabilities and on their guiding role as part of a unified network.

Solution
The knowledge acquired during the three-day event has been transformed into printed materials to fill a dedicated binder, a real guidebook of the future leader. Participants elaborated six projects to simulate real, regional initiatives and the synthesis conversation laid the foundations of an actual “training model” that Slow Food will be able to use for future needs.
