Self-Selection Gamified: Leave Your Fears Behind

[presentation]
by
Dana Pylayeva
Summary: 

Self-selection is a facilitated process that allows people to exercise autonomy by choosing their preferred initiatives and joining new teams. As exciting as it may sound to some, the idea of self-selection may cause others to experience all sorts of fear: fear of missing out, fear of not being selected, or fear of picking a wrong team. Let Dana Pylayeva alleviate those fears by taking you through effective preparation steps and a round of self-selection simulation. Hands-on activities such as drawing, making participants cards in a Team Ingredients Assessment, and playing the Not2Spooky4Me card game will keep everyone engaged and maximize learning. The game-like format creates a safe space for you to ask questions and overcome fears. By the end of this session, you will be able to explain five steps to prepare for self-selection and three steps to run the process, so you can go back to your teams with confidence.
