I have a couple of New Year’s rituals that help prepare me for a new year. This past year I had the honor of facilitating an intense training in Tunisia in January for Women Entrepreneurs that included leadership, entrepreneurship, business planning, and communications.

One technique I use is the “Burning Question” board. Not only does this give learners a chance to think about questions they have, but also helps me figure out how how well agenda matches expectations and manage them throughout the day. Having a formal closing to your training helps extend the learning to action.

The national anthem from Tunisia brought tears to my eyes – in part – because feeling in which they sang it – and the team leader, Chema, has a beautiful singing voice.

” I first used this exercise in 2011 in Lebanon to kick off E-Mediat project that brought trainers and capacity builders from 5 countries in the Middle East to be trained on curriculum based on my book, the Networked Nonprofit , and interactive training techniques. .” How do you engage in cross-discipline learning?
