This workshop will help you:

• Understand how to apply the Eight Field Method developed by Kessels & Smit for a semi-structured intake interview with a client
• Learn how to use this information to tailor learning and change processes that support the strategic needs of your client. By taking the conversation to a strategic level, you co-creatively develop a longer trajectory than with the initial, basic questions.
• Know how to structure the intake information into a very convincing proposal. Your client will feel you truly understand their reality and they will see and feel the added value of your proposal for their organisation.

During the workshop you will see how the Eight Fields Method is applied with the help of a demo.  This will include the application of impact-based learning, transfer from the learning place to the workplace, the distinction between the responsibilities of the contractor and those of the client, and the architecture of a monitoring system for your proposed intervention. Subsequently, you will initiate your own Eight Fields Needs Assessment with a real case study from one of your clients.
