INNOVATE YOUR CULTURE
WorkPossible 2027 · Preconference Workshop
Mindset, Skills & Action for New Growth
Kick off the conference by connecting with fellow leaders, building practical innovation skills, and exploring new ways to create meaningful change in your organization. You’ll leave with new relationships, fresh ideas, and tools you can put to work right away.
EXCLUSIVE TO ALL ACCESS AND ALL ACCESS+ TICKET HOLDERS
Connect, Create & Lead Together
This hands-on preconference workshop gives you an early start on everything that makes WorkPossible valuable: meaningful connection, peer learning, fresh thinking, and practical action.
​
Through collaborative activities and design thinking, you’ll work alongside fellow leaders to explore real organizational challenges, generate new ideas, and practice techniques for building a more innovative workplace. You’ll begin making connections before the main conference even starts—and walk into WorkPossible with new relationships, new perspectives, and momentum already building.
About the Workshop
EXPAND YOUR NETWORK
Forge meaningful connections with fellow leaders and exchange real-world challenges, ideas, and solutions before the conference even begins.
BUILD AN INNOVATION MINDSET
Practice design thinking and human-centered approaches that help you challenge assumptions, generate better ideas, and turn possibilities into action.
LEAVE WITH PRACTICAL TOOLS
Learn simple facilitation and innovation techniques you can immediately use to make meetings more engaging, collaborative, and productive.
Innovation isn’t just about coming up with more ideas. It’s about creating the conditions where people can think differently, collaborate effectively, experiment, and turn ideas into action.
​
This workshop puts those skills into practice. Rather than spending four hours listening to presentations, you’ll work alongside other leaders, tackle real challenges, and experience practical innovation and design thinking techniques you can bring back to your organization.
​
You’ll also get an early start on one of the most valuable parts of WorkPossible: learning from and building relationships with the people around you.
WHO IT'S FOR
If you’re responsible for helping people, teams, or organizations grow and change, this workshop is for you.
Whether you lead a team, shape workplace culture, facilitate meetings, develop people, or drive organizational change, you’ll leave with practical approaches for helping people collaborate, innovate, and move ideas forward.

The preconference session was amazing! From building LEGO creations and drawing pictures to gathering around a ‘campfire’ to introduce ourselves, every activity was designed to get us interacting and connecting in meaningful ways. It was engaging, creative, and such a fantastic way to kick off the conference!

"Dr. Eich had us engaged from the very first minute. I walked away with so many practical facilitation tools, fresh insights, and even AI strategies I can apply to elevate my own work. One exercise, ‘What the Duck?!’, completely changed the way I think about approaching challenges with fresh eyes. The entire experience was engaging, practical, and immediately applicable."
