This is a channel for the Diversity Icebreaker (DI) and it will feature video material from workshops, testimonials from participants and tips from consultants using the tool.
DI is a dynamic group training and development concept based on a questionnaire measuring preferences in communication, teamwork and problem-solving styles. It was developed by Bjørn Z. Ekelund of Human Factors in Norway, awarded 'Consultant of the Year 2008' in Norway.
The classic DI workshop begins by asking individuals to map their own preferences using the questionnaire. Then in dynamic group work, participants are encouraged to discuss their own preferences and their perceptions of others, creating a fun and motivating environment to reflect and to identify ways to cooperate more effectively.
