Feedback
The group members had lots to share
I liked the sharing of ideas
It gave an insight into some of the
other tools available
I can see that I could use it personally, within the admin team and across
the Unit as a whole
Really enjoyed this workshop - it was
different, and certainly mind-opening
Could potentially streamline some processes in the
office

Sharing Resources
Write down your solution on a post-it note If someone else in the group suggests the same
tool put a dot on it – (Add an extra dot for each person who suggests it)
If someone isn’t familiar with the tool you have suggested, spend a few minutes explaining what it is
Pass your scenario (& suggestions) onto the next table
