This 60-minute webinar, sponsored by Adobe, was delivered for the Training Mag Network. It explored the five elements of SPARK: Storytelling, Purpose, Action, Relationships, and Kudos. Knowing how to tell a well-structured story is key to building long-term memory. Stating a clear purpose that doesn't take away from the discovery learning process is critical. Ensuring that people move from theory to practical application is imperative. Creating strong social learning is the key to commitment and engagement. Validating and affirming participants' comments is the way to create a positive learning environment.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

3. Stand design & decoration
EXERCISE:
Make a (draft) sketch
of your (fictional) stand.
Indicate approx. sizes, key elements and limits with
adjacent stands…
4. Ownership & production matters
As an exhibitor, you have the choice between renting booth
space only ('naked square meters') and renting a fully
equipped stand, - or anything in between.
Further, specialised suppliers offer the choice between tailor-
made booths and 'modular' booths and building systems, - or
anything in between.
Lastly, you as an exhibitor can choose the range of services
that should come with the booth: mounting & dismantling,
storage & disposal, re-use…
5. Ownership & production matters
Traditional woodwork:
+ Freedom of forms - Building Time
Aesthetics After-use
Sturdy Reusability
Modular booths:
+ Fast to build - Cost (message)
Reusability Aesthetics
Environment No complex forms
Hybrid stands: best of both worlds

networks
7. Ownership & production matters
Ideally, the timing for stand design
and assembly takes 6 to 9 months:
Register with organizer (D - 9 months)
Briefing and rough stand design (D - 8 months)
Planning assembly and disassembly (D - 8 months)
Construction of booth (D - 6 to 2 months)
Preparing furniture, equipment and exhibits (D - 2 m.)
Compiling material (D - 3 to 1 months)
Transport of material (D - 4 to 3 weeks)
Assembly of booth (D - 2 – 1 week)
Handing over of booth (day before trade fair)
Disassembly of booth
Transportation to company, repair and storage
8. Situation within the halls
Most visitors develop typical behaviour as to when
to arrive and how to walk through the halls.
Several parameters determine which sections of
which halls will be busy at what moments:
- Origin of visitors (local - national - international)
- Interest of visitors (seminars, special events)
- Segmentation of halls (horizontal - vertical)
- Preparatory matchmaking (e.g. Royal Dutch)
Exhibition targets determine the best site:
- Existing customers vs. new customers
- Transaction vs. information
- Demonstration vs. market research

10. Types of stands
Criterion N° 1: Number of open sides

- Place to show / explain something
- Host booth staff & visitors (work & 'play')

- Hospitality point
- Information point

Try a zest of humor
