Mondragon Team Academy

A technique for encouraging participants to support each other in applying what they learn, that I got from Kaisu Tuominiemi, a coach at Mondragon Team Academy.

The flow:
At the end of a learning event, a course, a workshop, a class, the joker asks participants to write down one (or two) specific actions they want to take in the next two weeks, as a way to apply what they have learned.

A fast-moving concentration game in which mistakes are celebrated. I learned this from Kaisu Tuominiemi, a coach at Mondragon Team Academy.

In a circle, five to maybe ten people.

Phase One

The joker starts the game by putting her left hand on her right shoulder and saying, "one!"

The person to her right repeats the motion, saying, "two!"

This continues four more times.
