<h2>Our view on the buzz-word "innovation"</h2>For us, innovation is a way of thinking, a value-adding novelty, and the process to get there. In the end, innovation is the constant change a company needs to become future-proof. Especially in a growingly changing and complex world, adapting to market developments and -needs is more important than ever. Anyhow, today "94% of global executives are disappointed with their companies innovation performance." (McKinsey). We believe innovation can be even more than just help the company to survive. With the right mindset &amp; tools, work becomes more fulfilling, personal success more likely, and wellbeing at work can be boosted for each one of us. As we are convinced that fun is a crucial part of successful innovation, we focus on tools that are not only effective and efficient but also help to enjoy working alone or with your colleagues.

Miro is an online whiteboard that works like a charm for collaborative challenges. Imagine it as an online workshop room where you can do everything you are used to in a workshop room. Sticky notes, Whiteboard, etc. - it is all there. But it can do even more, as you can upload pictures, links, and any other digital stuff that might be helpful in your project. We will onboard you on Miro upfront to the training program with a little exercise. However, experience shows that even the least online-savvy person gets a grip on it after a few minutes of confusion.Btw, we just love Miro :)PS: And yes, we will also explain to you why you should behave a little more like an #Alpaca.

Interactive training with content and tools based on cognitive science, market leaders best-practices and own experience from 20+ years experience of the founders from corporate, consulting, and founding startups. Ah, and yes ö not to forget: a little fun.

<h2>DAY8 Way - Training method</h2><h3>Learning by Doing</h3>Our trainings are hands-on and interactive. No one-way talks by a teacher but collaborative development of content and practical exercises based on real-life experiences. <h3>For each learning style</h3>Whether you are an auditory, visual, motoric, or communicative learner - our trainings are based on all channels. A clear training structure of explanation, visualization, application and discussion stimulates all senses and therefore supports sustainable learning.<h3>Fun</h3>Trainings are often boring and focussed on content exclusively. We at DAY8 believe that fun is an important part of self-development and that if we engage in positive emotions it supports the learning process. After all, without fun, we wouldn't do what we do. And this is what every attendee will feel when having a training with us.

We love the feedback of our attendees. Need more? Find it <a href="https://day8.io/customer-voices-are-our-gasoline/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">here</a>.
