Consulting
In our experience, such "fitness" has become even more important in recent years. What do companies have to do to keep up with the demands of the digital age? How do they adapt as quickly as possible to the new needs and interests of customers and employees alike? And what practices help them not just to react, but to shape things creatively themselves? The LOOP change approach provides you with directional answers to these essential questions for every agile transformation.
Our approach is based on the painful experience that traditional change management rarely leads to the desired results. Instead of ideal states, grand plans and general-staff execution, we therefore rely on an agile approach that is worthy of its name. This includes that we:
Start with the actual situation
Set a clear focus for improvement
Create a strong coalition for change
Ensure that as many people as possible are actively involved in shaping the project
Proceed in manageable iterations that are focused on measurable intermediate outcomes
Arrange a meeting so that we can explore your specific concerns and design a customized approach.
But what has to happen so that it doesn't just remain agile rhetoric? We will show you how you can use the existing strengths and potentials and create a sustainable organizational design. Learn in this interactive workshop how to address your biggest challenges and realize more business agility step by step.

What you get from professional workshop moderation
As different as the contents, the group of participants or the framework conditions of workshops may be -- what they have in common is the goal of concrete improvements. To achieve this goal, we not only use state-of-the-art methods of workshop design, but also pay special attention to the context of the workshop. Even if it is only a single workshop, we have the best possible transfer of the results in mind right from the start (see procedure).
How we proceed
In our experience, there are some methodological cornerstones for designing successful workshops:
Careful preparation that begins with clarifying the goals, stakeholders, and contexts of a particular workshop;
Intensive cooperation with the client, from the preparation to the ongoing reflection of the event to the transfer into the daily work routine;
Set up collaboration-friendly work environments, i.e. seating arrangements, equipment and scheduling that fit the agenda, the participants and their corporate culture;
Facilitation as self-confident leadership work that keeps an eye on both the goals and the work process;
Encourage open communication to engage with each other, explore differences and ultimately come to joint steps for improvement;
Continuous reflection over the course of the workshop in order to check and, if necessary, correct the course together with the responsible managers;
Clear agreements regarding documentation, strategic plans and next steps for implementation;
Follow-up meetings to assess the results of implementation to date and to work out further steps for improvement.
Arrange an appointment so that we can explore your specific concerns and design a customized approach.
