At CeeD, we bring people together to solve real operational challenges through collaboration, shared expertise, and practical learning. Here’s how we do it:
Workshops
Solving Shared Challenges Together
When multiple members face similar issues, we form Workshops; dynamic, focused groups made up of peers, experts, and academics. These groups:
- Address specific operational challenges raised by members
- Are tailored to each issue, with participants selected based on relevance and expertise
- Set their own goals and timelines, typically meeting every 6 weeks
- Are supported by a CeeD representative and led by an experienced practitioner or academic
- Close once the objective is achieved
- Workshops start with a simple question: “Does anyone know the best way to…?” If you’ve got a challenge, we’ll help you find the right people to tackle it.
