Workshop room setup

Getting the room ready takes two minutes

A screen and a flipchart – that is all your room needs. We bring every other workshop material with us, so your team can simply walk in and start.

What your room needs

Two things from you

A screen or projector

Ideally with a standard HDMI connection. We plug in our laptop and show the slides for the day.

A flipchart or whiteboard

With a few markers that still write. This is where the group’s results take shape.

What we bring

Everything else comes with us

No shopping list and no store cupboard hunt. The workshop materials arrive with your facilitator.

Sticky notes

Plenty of them, in several colours – for ideas, clusters and decisions.

Pens and paper

For everyone in the room, so every participant can write from the first minute.

Dots to vote

So the group can set priorities quickly and visibly.

Tape

To put paper and results on the wall – wherever the group works best.

FAQ

Short answers to common questions

Do we need to buy any materials?

No. Sticky notes, pens, paper, voting dots and tape come with us.

What if our screen has no HDMI connection?

Just let us know which connection your screen or projector has. We will sort it out together before the workshop day.

Is a whiteboard as good as a flipchart?

Yes. Either works – what matters is a surface the whole group can see and write on.

Is there anything else to prepare?

For the room: no. Everything about content and flow we clarify with you in a short call beforehand.
