“Self-efficacy and assertiveness in the Non Profit are two issues strongly linked to our values and even more allow us to express them within organizations”<\/em>\u00a0(Luigi Zampi)<\/p>\n

The workshop ran through a space of four days and it was led by\u00a0Luigi Zampi<\/strong><\/a>, trainer and a long-time collaborator of Social Change School and a consultant for the process of the Master of Management Development and by \u00a0Silvia Fontana<\/strong><\/a>,<\/strong>\u00a0Head of Career Service<\/strong><\/a> of The Social Change School, Global Peace Index 2016<\/strong> Ambassador<\/strong> and former Project Planning Officer COOPI – International Cooperation.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In addition, during the third day,\u00a0Sara Bellettato<\/strong>, Human Rights Consultant in Arci Solidarity<\/strong>, accompanied HOPE Master’s students during the\u00a0Humanitarian Negotiation module in the field with a focus on conflict management in emergencies and in international contexts.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The last day ended with\u00a0Federico Atzori<\/strong><\/a>, Coordinator of the Master FRAME in Fundraising Management, Communication Coordinator of Social Change School, who introduced the students to the\u00a0world of LinkedIn with a special focus on how to use the effective social network for Non-profit professionals.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The students were welcomed by a sunny Milan, attended a workshop, in the Impact Hub Milan<\/strong>, rich of information, tutorials and workshops on the concepts just learned, that allowed a personal work for the development of managerial skills to be spent in a professional environment within organizations.<\/p>\n

The workshop was like a stream that started with assertiveness and personal effectiveness<\/strong> and the working group, not treated as abstract subjects but as words and behaviours present every day in professional and personal life of each one. Personal effectiveness that within the Non Profit means:\u00a0building a vision to be achieved step-by- step always consistent with your values and starting the self-correction and self-affirmation.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Conduct and attitudes that are useful in enhancing your position in a team<\/strong>, on one hand by being listened and understand others, the other allowing the leaders<\/strong> to actively listen to the proposals of the group. During the first day a focus was also dedicated on understanding the behaviour of others through the use the Wholebrain Model of Ned Hermann<\/strong> (a system to measure and describe the preferences of thought in people).<\/p>\n

If being heard is important, it is in the\u00a0same way, to speak with efficacy<\/strong>: this was the objective of the second day focused on public speaking. As “Paul Watzlawich” said:\u00a0you cannot help but communicate, <\/em>you communicate\u00a0both with words<\/strong> and with the body<\/strong>: here is the focus on the analysis of the physical skills of the presenter with some personal presentations of the students and the focus on the organization of the speech through the method the “train of thought of the listener.” An effective model for presentations by starting from the listener’s needs and through 7 step creating a clear and effective project proposal. The students during their presentations were involved by the teacher in\u00a0moments of peer-to-peer feedback.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The third morning was dedicated to\u00a0Conflict Management.<\/strong>\u00a0This issue was dealt in several ways: for Master in Project Management for International Cooperation and Fundraising Management, a focus on conflicts was made within organizations and how to reach a joint decision through a “cooperative method<\/strong>“; the students of the Master in Humanitarian Operations in Emergencies instead have been able to focus on Humanitarian Negotiation in the field<\/strong>, with the understanding of different patterns and conflict resolution models and a final workshop which saw the same students involved in the solution of a conflict based on a case study.<\/p>\n

The afternoon of the third day was devoted to the definition of the\u00a0personal Swot Analysis<\/strong>\u00a0who led the students earlier on their own to understand their strengths, improvement, opportunities and risks associated with them and their environment, and then to share thier\u00a0analysis in the group to receive suggestions and an “external” view on the achievement of its goals.\u00a0This was the first step towards the definition of personal goals and above all professional.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The fourth and final day was dealt with the “LinkedIn module for Non Profit”<\/strong>, a first part organized on the discussion on the potential of social networks for professionals and the benefits for both individuals and for the organizations. A second part was devoted to the laboratory on the personal profiles of students who were able to improve their presence on LinkedIn understanding the practices of the networking and the benefits of a strong and coherent network.<\/strong><\/p>\n
