«Tell me how trustworthy your complex team collaboration begins…
…and I’ll tell you whether your team will achieve regenerative results»
– (adapted) quote from project management
Why is MAGICPROJECTS needed?
Teamwork is the key to a regenerative circular economy.
Trust in and among each other, on the other hand, is sinking to ever new record lows in business and society.
Designing and implementing safe, trusting spaces in complex large or small groups and launching effective project teamwork:
MAGICPROJECTS helps here!
Trust in working together as a team could develop in the middle – if only there weren’t so many differences of opinion
Because:
- Cross-company competences for collaboration and real teamwork are often not (sufficiently) available
- Non-disclosure agreements and/or round tables are not enough to innovate long-term circular business models across the entire value chain
- Trustful kick-off spaces are missing in multistakeholder projects
Through inspirational and trustful workshops MAGICPROJECTS provides collaborative innovation ideas with the best possible kick-off phases – no matter how large the group of people is.
These new kick-off phases have the effect that…
- People meet as people in psychologically safe spaces (and not as competitors)
- The really important and mostly hushed-up project risks (and OPPORTUNITIES!) are discussed and tackled early on
- seemingly unsolvable initial problems get unexpected solutions (by tapping into collective intelligence)
- real regenerative teams are born
A first step into collaboration: In psychologically safe (protected) spaces, people talk to each other instead of against each other
Who does MAGICPROJECTS help?
- Managing directors and project managers of associations, NGOs, NPOs and foundations
- Courageous personalities who want to start new projects in a collaborative mindset (such as a circular economy project)
- Company managers and heads of HR, sustainability and innovation teams
- Conference organizers
People come together as a regenerative team and experience (and celebrate) their first effective successes
Successful teamwork is infectious, inspiring and catalyses the wider environment and unexpected allies
This is what I offer with MAGICPROJECTS:
- 1:1 mentoring of initiators, project and team leaders (at the start of innovative collaboration and multi-stakeholder projects)
- Co-creation of participative small and large groups or conferences (who want to move from talking to acting as a team)
- Circular economy: mentoring, design & implementation of pre-competitive trust spaces
- Teamretreats in nature(e.g. for self-organized teams or those who want to become one)
Prices by arrangement (depending on initial situation, complexity and duration of use)
Teamwork makes dreams work: Examples
MAGICPROJECTS was able to help conceptualise, design and support the following complex team projects:
Flagship event 30th anniversary of a business association
- Initial situation: business association with a new executive director and an important annual flagship event for 200 participants that needs to be organized and designed (celebrating its 30th anniversary)
- Added value of MAGICPROJECTS: Collaborative conception, organization and implementation of this high-level full-day conference from A-Z incl. 1:1 mentoring of the managing director (conference details here)
- “Forum ö 2019 was the best conference of my professional life up to that point”
– Markus Daniel, Managing Director Menu & More & former board member of öbu (Association for Sustainable Business)
Collaboration of different circular economy pioneers
- Starting point: A highly diverse group of exciting organizations found each other (and funding) to try something new: to increase the demand for circular products and services in Switzerland.
- Added value of MAGICPROJECTS: energizing and facilitating team workshops in the norming and storming phase, co-creation of external physical and virtual workshops (pre-competitive, cross-industry).
- “MAGICPROJECTS manages to strengthen trust in broad-based project teams internally, build positive energy – and thus achieve scalable impact externally.”
– Chris Häuselman, SHIFT Switzerland Chairman
Further fields of application of MAGICPROJECTS (selection):
- Conversion workshops for (historically “contaminated”) properties (e.g. Tötungsanstalt Grafeneck Schwäbische Alb)
- Team building for courageous pioneering projects (e.g. ThinkPACT or Common Ground)
- Team foundation of and teamwork in transformative communities of practice (e.g. Dadpreneurship Community)
- Team collaboration and further team development in non-profit organizations (e.g. Soziokratie Zentrum Bodensee e.V.)
