Group Leadership Dynamics & Development- Important Change & Update!
by ASilentObserver
Last post
 November 14th
...See more Hello everyone! As you know we introduced [https://www.7cups.com/forum/GroupSupport_168/CommunityManagersOffice_2008/7CupsAcademyTheGroupLeadershipandDynamicsDevelopment_233187/]a Group Leadership Dynamics & Development Program and the first batch started on 01/04/2021. We received inputs from the trainees and the community that applying for roles as part of the program can be overwhelming to the trainees. Applying for Group Support Roles was part of the training program. But considering all inputs, we decided to drop it from the program. That means the trainees do not need to worry about meeting the criteria to apply for the group support roles. They can completely focus on the learning and experiencing parts of the program. Though here a few things to consider: * All group leader trainees at least need to be Verified Listeners by the end of the program. * If a group leader trainee is eligible for any role like room supporter, chat room moderator, peer supporter, chatroom mentor, etc. then we highly encourage them to apply for them and learn and experience group dynamics under a specific role. However, we will no longer require it. * At the end of the program, a trainee would be eligible for applying for higher leadership roles as per role requirements. This change will be applicable to the first batch as well as all future batches. A new addition to the program requirements, all trainees would be required to submit a short project on group dynamics. Under this short project, one has to * Identify a challenge in the group chat rooms. * How is it impacting the group? * What are the potential solutions to address the concern? (Include all technical and non-technical solutions) To create this short project, a trainee could use Problem Solving Template * Problem (try to write it as simple and clear as possible): * Example: Chat room is not inclusive. * Solution (the opposite of the problem): * All members in the chat room feel inclusive. * Group Members will: * Greet and acknowledge all entering the room and encourage them to share their thoughts. * Group Leaders will: * Run daily check-in at X times in X room. * 1-10 rating of the problem (1 is really not good and 10 is great): * Current rating: X * After the implementation of the solution, the rating will be: Y * Due date check-in (rate problem again on 1-10 scale): Z This is added to substitute the “Apply for Group Support Roles” part of the program. The short project will be required to submit in the second last week of the program, With the implementation of the above change, we are also making changes in the program duration. Now, it will offer only two durations: 6 and 8 Weeks. We made this change to ensure all trainees get good exposure and learning experiences during the program. All the changes will be applicable to the immediate effect. We hope all these changes help our trainees get all time to learn the group dynamics and development. Best wishes!! Keep learning!! ------------------------- Are you interested in the program? We are accepting applications! Read about it more here [https://www.7cups.com/forum/GroupSupport_168/CommunityManagersOffice_2008/7CupsAcademyTheGroupLeadershipandDynamicsDevelopment_233187/] and apply here!

 July 6th, 2023
...See more Hi everyone! I wanted to share some news with you all. After serving as a GSP mentor for over a year, I have made the decision to step down from my current role. It has been an incredible journey filled with growth, learning, and most importantly, connecting with all of you amazing individuals. While I have thoroughly enjoyed my time as a GSP mentor, I believe it's essential to recognize when we reach a point of stagnation. Although I genuinely enjoyed and excelled in my role, I felt the need to explore new avenues for personal and professional development. But fret not! This is not a goodbye to mentoring altogether. I will continue serving as a Chatroom Mentor and also take on the role of Content Development and Marketing Program Mentor. I am excited about the opportunities that lie ahead and the chance to contribute in different capacities. To those who are still actively participating in the program, I wish you the best of luck! Remember, you are part of an incredible community of talented individuals who are ready to support and guide you. If you have any questions or need assistance, please reach out to the current mentors: @vivelespatates, @cathahrtic1435, and @Hope. Finally, I would like to extend my gratitude to each and every one of you who has been a part of my mentoring journey. Your enthusiasm, dedication, and commitment to growth have been truly inspiring. Together, we have created an environment that fosters learning and collaboration. Tagging current trainees: @Fluffysheep8 @Ivy229 @Mari228 @iStarlight @Endure777 @MeowgicalCaticorn Shout out to the following listeners who've made a huge impact on my journey: @FrenchMarbles @sunisshiningandsoareyou @SparkyGizmo @AnnaSilverberg @LavenderHere @Daf8 @LilacLeopard @DonaldDraper @TabbyCat97 @SirenofSerenity @beck1

Hosting Listener Discussion Sessions Update - GLDD (trial)
by AriadneLove
Last post
 December 16th, 2021
...See more Hello, Everyone! Hopefully, you are doing well. I am very glad to announce that fruitful collaboration between the GLDD and Listener Chatrooms Leaders have brought its fruits in creating Hosting Opportunities. Therefore, we updating the process of Hosting Listener Discussion Sessions for GLDD Listener trainees. What are the Hosting Opportunities? Hosting opportunities is a project which enables GLDD trainees to host Listener Sharing Circle (LSC) or Listener Check-in (LCI) without joining the team or signing up for hosting. Trainees are no longer required to commit to one of the teams or a weekly time slot. Instead, you can choose each week what and when you would like to host. Furthermore, each trainee will be supported by an experienced leader of the respected team. The aims of the project are to speed up the process and enable trainees to host from the very first week of the GLDD program. Furthermore, provide trainees with the opportunity to learn group support skills from an experienced chatroom leader. How does it work? 1) To host LSC or LCI fill this form [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScw_Tl23Tjwc3zO0awx65oBKgeWGeRBVW-8KD_Jpc4oMq_C6w/viewform] each week. 2) After you have finished hosting sessions for the whole week, submit this form [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1bi9xPzV0HGcxsURRM5VWB_ac5VcwfXkWhzGZV7HuYxA/viewform?edit_requested=true#responses] to log your sessions. Who should use this form? All GLDD Listeners trainees (on both members and listeners tracks), including active members of LSC and LCI teams. This Update should make the practical experience in listener chatrooms more accessible and effective. If you have any questions about the Hosting Opportunities or Hosting Discussion Sessions in general, please feel free to reach out to me, @AriadneLove [https://www.7cups.com/@AriadneLove]. Huge shout out to @amazingNutella24 without whom this program would not be possible.
