  5 Icebreakers That Aren't Cringe (For Meetings and Workshops) | #ADAW Ep. 33

  Sep 22, 202627 min

  Icebreakers don't have to be cringe. After running hundreds of workshops, I figured out why some warm-ups make people roll their eyes, and why others create real connection in minutes. In this video I share my 5 go-to icebreakers for meetings and workshops, two that are purely about connection, and three that quietly do part of your job as a facilitator.The last one is my favorite, so stick around for that.⏱️ CHAPTERS00:00 Icebreakers don't have to be cringe00:45 The first trick: don't say the word01:38 Why I changed my mind (the COVID story)02:30 Connection, not competition03:47 Why warm-ups make groups more creative05:20 Activity 1: Time Traveler08:00 Activity 2: Curiosity Exchange11:00 Free PDF with all 5 activities11:30 Activity 3: Why It Matters14:20 Activity 4: Hopes & Fears19:50 Activity 5: Zombie Apocalypse24:30 Recap26:00 Where these activities come from FREE DOWNLOADAll 5 activities with written instructions and Miro templates: https://facilitators-corner.com/icebreakers THE WORKSHOP DECKThese activities come from the Workshop Deck, 52 cards to help you design better workshops.

  8 Months Building a Facilitation Business: What I Got Wrong | #ADAW Ep. 31

  Sep 1, 202638 min

  Eight months ago I left my job to build a facilitation business full-time. This episode is the honest version: what's actually hard, what I got wrong, and the parts nobody posts about.I talk about the deal that collapsed when one of my clientwas fired, the three prospects in a row who told me I was too expensive, and what that does to your confidence when you start doubting your own pricing. I break one of my own rules on camera too: I took on a client who wanted to see every detail of the agenda, exactly the kind of engagement I tell people to avoid, and I explain why I did it anyway and how I protected myself.There's also the thing that surprised me most. I quit to facilitate, and most of my days now are writing, selling, and building systems. Very little facilitating.And two things that are genuinely working: video outreach instead of text messages, and following up more times than feels comfortable.If you're thinking about making the jump, this is the version I wish someone had told me.⏱️ CHAPTERS00:00 Eight months in01:42 The fantasy vs the reality03:46 Why I made less than last year05:53 Starting to doubt my prices10:33 Three "too expensive" in a row13:10 The client who wanted to control everything19:17 Protecting yourself when you break your own rules20:41 Content creation is a long game23:17 The four ways to get leads28:08 When it's okay to stop being consistent31:38 What this is costing me35:51 What's working: video outreach38:33 Follow up more than you think MENTIONED$100M Offers, $100M Leads, and $100M Money Models by Alex HormoziMy six-question workshop design framework: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IffzcCKbGvY The Workshop Deck: www.workshopdeck.com
