Course Description: 

We are all facing challenges, every day, in our work and our private lives. Coming up with original solutions and solving problems is a key skill for success and fulfillment – but it‘s not like we can simply press a button and make it rain ideas. There are, however, tools and principles we can use to better grasp the challenges we face, generate ideas and implement them – on our own as well as with colleagues and friends. We will practice these tools on real-life challenges, reflect on it and transfer it to each and everyone‘s individual situation.

Course aims: 
  • Creative thinking
  • Problem solving
  • Creative facilitation
Teaching methods: 

We will rely on a mix of digital and physical presentation, group work, breakouts and reflective sessions.

Isabela Plambeck

Isabela Plambeck has been supporting companies, teams and individuals as a trainer, moderator and coach for innovation, creativity and self-organization. She studied engineering for industrial design at the Polytechnic University of Valencia and the University of Applied Sciences in Munich. Her further education didn't stop there, however. Her training in Dynamic Facilitation and a systemic coach are only two examples. She loves to incorporate knowledge and experience from various subject areas and interests into her work in order to show as many perspectives as possible. Isabela practices an undogmatic mixture of systematic, pragmatic and logical thinking on the one hand and empathy, sensitivity and intuition on the other. One of her strengths is improvisation. In events that she herself calls “Muddling-through Workshops”, she reacts spontaneously to the needs of the group and always pulls the right tools out of her suitcase.
