Member involvement

How do you make your members feel at home in your association? How do you encourage them to join a committee, activities or take initiative? How do you make sure all members feel involved, regardless of their background? 

 

In this workshop, we focus on how you, as a board, can increase member involvement and create a sense of belonging within your association. We explore the needs and motivations of your members and how you can encourage them to participate in committees, activities, or other initiatives. Also, we reflect on how to ensure that all members feel heard, valued, and included. 

 

Create a vibrant community where your members feel at home and inspired to contribute!

Inclusive Leadership

Do you want to make your association more inclusive? Are you interested in learning how to support the varying needs among your members? Would you like to know how to make communication work despite cultural differences? 

 

This workshop consists of 2 sessions in which you work towards your set goal: e.g. engaging more internationals in your association, making women or LGBTQ+ people feel safer, or getting a hold of a group of students that don’t appear in your activities at all. During these interactive sessions, you will explore the core values of your board, learn how to create an open atmosphere for dialogue, and discover the needs of your members. This will be done by diving into a current situation within your association, where you will be challenged to gain insights from your members on that topic and use those to brainstorm for positive changes.

 

Let’s create a more inclusive and welcoming association for all members!

 

Details

Helps with: communication, awareness, and becoming more inclusive

Duration: 2 times a workshop of 2,5 hours (the workshops are scheduled about a month apart)

Costs: 2 x €250*

Finish as a team

 

Would you like to boost your motivation for the last few months as a board? Would you like to reflect on your board year and round it off well? We help you to reflect and raise your team spirit. 

 

In this workshop, you’ll look back at what you did/did not accomplish this year and how this made you feel; what brought you happiness, what brought you stress? Look at where you want to go in your final months as a board member, but also consider what lies beyond. We’ll support you in opening up to each other; these meaningful conversations can help build a stronger connection between you. Whether there are some unresolved issues, compliments that you still want to share, or wishes for the final stretch. 

 

We’ll make sure the workshop is tailored to your specific needs as a board. Before the workshop, we will meet with one of your board members to understand how your team is doing and what you’ve gone through. 

 

Together, we will celebrate all your successes of the past year.

Social

Conversation events

Would you like to have open conversations on important topics within your association, and are you looking for ways to guide the discussion?

 

Though there is much we can learn from each other and we often face similar challenges, it can sometimes still be difficult to openly talk about them. We offer several activities to open up the conversation in a low-threshold way:

  • Mix and Mingle: a speed dating activity where many people get to meet each other in a meaningful way
  • Questions for Humanity: a game where you form the questions yourself, share your life story, and hear about others' stories
  • The Spectrum: a game where there are no winners, just deep conversations where you learn from each other's perspectives
  • Dialogues: a structured approach to hear others' opinions about one specific issue

You choose which activity you prefer, and we will tailor it to your preferred topic(s), such as study stress, diversity, or just well-being in general. We will create a safe space for honest, meaningful conversations where everyone feels heard. This way, you support your members to openly talk about their challenges and support each other. 

 

Empower conversations that connect and inspire!

Connecting with peers

Friendships and social contacts are a big part of our lives and are always dynamic. When starting a new study or job, new connections can be overwhelming or can make you feel insecure.

 

In this workshop, you will explore what friendships and professional relationships mean to you and how you can develop your social connections. What makes you feel welcome? What is a friend to you? While exploring these questions, you will learn about your definition of a friend and might be surprised how that can be different for others. Also, you will learn how to work with a sociogram and discuss it together. During the whole session, we will make sure you get to know your colleagues/peers through mixing and mingling!

 

Learn how to make connections, become aware of personal and professional relations, and experience what connecting means to you and others.

Discover your values

Passionate about your future

‘Choose a job you love and you will never have to work a day in your life.’ But first, you might have to ask yourself the question: What am I passionate about, what are my skills, and how do I make the right choice for my future? Let us help you answer those questions. 

 

During this workshop, you will have the opportunity to reflect on your passions, skills, education, and ambitions. You will brainstorm for yourself and with others on how this can come together in a career, and write down the first steps you can take to get closer to your goal. Having a vision of where you want to go will make your upcoming study and career-related decisions a little easier.

Self-acceptance

Show your true self

Trying to present the perfect image of ourselves to others, whether on social media or in real life, can take up a lot of energy. Still, many of us tend to do it. 

 

This workshop is focused on the question: What are my traits that I like to show to others, and which ones do I prefer to hide? We will help you reflect on this question, support you in finding answers for yourself, and guide the conversation within the group to inspire one another. All to develop more self-awareness, feel more comfortable in your own shoes, and have more peace of mind.

 

Give yourself the freedom to be your true self among others.

Dealing with perfectionism

Perfectionism can be both a blessing and a burden. It may help you excel in your studies and other activities, but it can also be a cause for stress and anxiety.

 

This workshop aims to help you understand what perfectionism is, where it comes from, and how to get it under control. You will explore how perfectionism establishes itself in your behaviour and thinking patterns. Using those insights and some practical tools to handle its burdens, you work on gaining more self-acceptance.

 

Let perfectionism work in your favour! 

 

Details

Helps with perfectionism, self-acceptance, stress management, decision-making, and procrastination
