#9- How To Close Your Workshop Well & Make Learning Last
Closing is not just an end of the session – it’s the moment where insights, connection, and learning can truly land.
In this episode, let’s explore how to design your closing with intention and impact. You’ll learn about the 3 essential aspects of closure and how to combine them based on your unique workshop design.
I’ll show you how to approach the closure and what to keep in mind based on the specifics of your workshop. I will explore what to do when your workshop didn’t have enough time for reflection earlier on, how to create a future-oriented closing, and underline why protecting the time for closure is absolutely non-negotiable.
🎧 This one is especially useful if you want your workshops to lead to meaningful action and long-term learning.
