Training given for SEC students TU Delft October 12th 2018
Michel van Baal & Roy Meijer – Short bios
Michel van Baal is Press Officer / Spokesperson at TU Delft, and - according to his Twitter bio - ‘a space engineer who got severely lost somewhere along the way’. He worked at ESA for nine years where he learnt the tricks of the communication trade. In 2009, he returned to the TU, where - among many other things - he plays the (very) annoying journalist during these media training sessions. Hasn’t been hit yet, but has come close.
Roy Meijer is Science Information Officer at TU Delft. With a journalism bachelor, a Master in Artificial Intelligence, a lot of common sense and even more practical experience, he co-hosts the media training sessions. He provides theoretical background, moral support and key messages to the scientists to prepare them for the worst Michel can throw at them.
Workshop
Being interviewed by a journalist can be intimidating. To help scientists cope with interview settings, the TU Delft communication department organises media training sessions on a regular basis - on average 40 times per year. During this workshop Michel van Baal and Roy Meijer will show you that as someone being interviewed you have a lot of control over the direction the interview takes, for better or worse. Spoiler alert: preparation is key.
Confronting indifference toward truth: Dealing with workplace bullshitIan McCarthy
Many organizations are drowning in a flood of corporate bullshit, and this is particularly true of organizations in trouble, whose managers tend to make up stuff on the fly and with little regard for future consequences. Bullshitting and lying are not synonymous. While the liar knows the truth and wittingly bends it to suit their purpose, the bullshitter simply does not care about the truth. Managers can actually do something about organizational bullshit, and this Executive Digest provides a sequential framework that enables them to do so. They can comprehend it, they can recognize it for what it is, they can act against it, and they can take steps to prevent it from happening in the future. While it is unlikely that any organization will ever be able to rid itself of bullshit entirely, this article argues that by taking these steps, astute managers can work toward stemming its flood.

Organic Communication - Stop Blocking, Start ConnectingLee K. Broekman
What are the communication blockers? There are innumerable ways in which people hinder harmonious exchanges, but eight major blockers pose the greatest challenges and create the most drama. Many blockers are interrelated and are oftentimes offshoots that accompany these primary blockers: Fixing, comparing, multi-tasking, trivializing, analyzing, interrogating, chastising and over-sympathizing. Learn how each of these blockers, individually and simultaneously, enter our interpersonal communication and wreak havoc that is difficult to undo.

Cracking the Workplace Discipline Code Main.pptxWorkforce Group
Cultivating and maintaining discipline within teams is a critical differentiator for successful organisations.
Forward-thinking leaders and business managers understand the impact that discipline has on organisational success. A disciplined workforce operates with clarity, focus, and a shared understanding of expectations, ultimately driving better results, optimising productivity, and facilitating seamless collaboration.
Although discipline is not a one-size-fits-all approach, it can help create a work environment that encourages personal growth and accountability rather than solely relying on punitive measures.
In this deck, you will learn the significance of workplace discipline for organisational success. You’ll also learn
• Four (4) workplace discipline methods you should consider
• The best and most practical approach to implementing workplace discipline.
• Three (3) key tips to maintain a disciplined workplace.
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.

German Culture in the Tennessee Valley
1. German Culture in
Cleveland & Bradley County
Tuesday, July 10, 2012
Christian Hoeferle
Höferle Consulting
German-American Chamber of Commerce of the Southern U.S.
6. Social Impact
• at least 4,500 new jobs in the region
• influx of newcomers to the area (from inside
the U.S. as well as from abroad)
• new, sometimes different mindsets &
mentalities arrive in the TN Valley
8. Educational Impact
• drastically increased demand for German classes
• introduction of German style job training initiatives
• need for special programs at local schools for
expatriate children
• introduction of International Baccalaureate program
• German Language School (Montessori Kinder)
11. Peach
- extroverted with strangers
- open & curious
- makes "friends" quickly
- talks openly in public
- public & private interwoven
Coconut
- reserved, needs time to warm up
with strangers
- private & public strictly separated
- social distance determined by
status, social role, profession
- close, very intimate sharing of
experiences with friends
13. ze German use of ze
Englisch language
• most Germans speak English
• many know English only on an academic/
school level
• most schools teach mainly British English
• => misunderstandings (esp. with Americans)
• difficulties in understanding nuances,
reading between the lines
• native speech is full of "would", "could",
"please", "thank you", "might"
• Germans use "should", "must", "have to",
"yes" and "no"
16. Values & Traditions
• "Ordnung muss sein!" (= order must be)
• efficiency, tidiness, organization, clarity, duty
• clarity ("Klarheit")
• Germans are usually very direct & straightforward - even to the extent of being
brutally honest
=> they'll tell you what to do and how to do it
• "Paralysis by Analysis" - the process of analyzing a situation defeats the more
important goal of reaching a decision
• wish for clarity & honesty comes with a sense of duty; to say something and not do it
is seen badly
• doing your duty (what is widely believed to be the right thing) = important part of
peoples' lives
• sense of duty is linked to a belief in higher principles
• => the greater common good
• Gemeinschaft/Gruppenzugehörigkeit => consensus-driven society
17. Private vs. Public
• work hard <==> party hard
• strong distinction between work and play
• "Dienst ist Dienst. Schnaps ist Schnaps."
(= Work is work and drink is drink)
• friends & family <==> rest of the world
• Germans are experts in code switching
• formality vs. friends
• moral standards differ substantially from those in the
Southeastern US: nudity and sexually explicit material in the
media is perfectly acceptable, violence is not
• complaining isn't considered a rude behaviour, it is a control
mechanism to make sure rules are obeyed and systems are
adhered to
18. Business & Private
• Germans' analytical approach isn't limited to the
business world
• deep and detailed communication is a lifestyle
• German friends want to talk about politics, social
issues, philosophy, attitudes to life, etc.
• they will expect you to stand your ground and will
reprove you if they think you're not thinking things
through
• they'll treasure your directness and honesty
19. Managment Communication
• very direct & straightforward
• giving and receiving orders is important, as is carrying
them out to the letter
• Germans get to the point quickly with no or very little
small talk
• contained body language; not too much smiling
(= false mannerism in business environment)
• lack of praise: do not expect to be praised for doing
your job, because "excellence comes as standard"
• efficiency and charm don't have to go together
20. Presenting & Listening
• Germans are usually more reserved and serious
• Americans tend to misinterpret this as being unfriendly
• Germans want to be respected and seen as credible
• Americans want to be liked
• Germans present data & content centered
• Americans present audience centered
• => amount of humor/entertainment elements in
German business communication is far less than with
Americans
21. Thank you for
Your Attention!
