All workshop ideas I had are already covered by other people, usually via the Dojo courses. Maybe I’ll figure out something original, maybe.

6th September also the start of my new job :smiley: ! Sounds interesting, I’d love to give it a try but not sure if I can prepare things with the start of my new job.
Maybe season 3 or 4, or let’s ask how long last each season ?

@ThePirateTester and I recently recorded a Racket. Great listen if you want to hear from someone who’s designed and run a 99 Minute Workshop: The power of a time constraint on online workshop design and demand :headphones:

And after the recording we were chatting, and Simon planted the seed for what workshop I could offer in season 2.

Now to work it out in time!

I’ve recorded a racket about a workshop idea I have, and find it easier verbalising it, rather than typing it.

Please let me know your thoughts, as it might be something people want, it might be something that needs refinement, or it might be something that there actually is no audience for.

Aye aye cap’n ’ @ThePirateTester this is definitely a workshop that I’d like to attend, as a (recent) meetup organizer the topic seems interesting with lot of potential.

@ThePirateTester I like the ideas here, I think we should do a racket together and I can answer some of your concerns whilst also helping you to develop a workshop

That would be great, and hopefully encourage others who might have the same concerns too!

Now to find a slot in our calendars…
