Workshop can also stand for programs and you can describe there the elements of your offering.

We do not advertise date specific workshops, but rather present the offer you can deliver. This is not an Eventbrite / event booking platform.

The aim is to showcase your “products”. The client typically comes with a request for a one off or series of workshops and typically you tailor the offer specifically to the clients needs.

• No, we cannot guarantee sales. We guarantee eyeballs, a team to work with and upgrade your marketing efforts for a minimum investment. Our aim is to create leads who are looking for you and your services. Your content -with our help- should bring the lead and you will close the sales. From years of experience we learned that the best salesperson of the services is the person who is serving them.
  
• Additionally we curate learning days and weeks for some of our clients, in this case we get in touch with experts who can serve the brief. We also post them in our community channel “gigs and jobs”. 
• We also include you to the Shake up the Workplace community where you can directly be in touch with the business changemakers.

The platform is designed to make your profiles stand out for L&D needs and connect to your other channels available. 

The interested business parties can contact you through the platform, send you a reservation request. Or they can contact you through your given contact details on the platform such as your LinkedIn page, website or phone number. Any agreement and transactions are expected to happen between the Expert and the interested parties directly. 

By being on the platform you are also in our database for the projects run by the Workplace Experts team for the organizations (such as curated learning weeks) in those cases the contracts are held between Nakama GmbH and the organizations and Nakama GmbH and the Experts involved.

We pride ourselves in working with people who understand the business. Our experts should have at least 3 years of experience in the domain of facilitation, coaching or training and ideally at least 2 years of working in a business environment.

The clients get in touch directly with you on your profile or via your contact details/links  that are shared on your profile. For the projects that Workplace Experts leads for some organizations we share it on our online community channel “gigs and jobs” and everyone has an equal chance to respond.

We have always a new joining expert or a new workshop or session listed by our experts as they are measuring the pulse of the workplace needs daily and responding to those needs. On our search page, you can search by category and/or objectives to see how many Experts are listed today per niche. You can also search by keywords.

We cannot report an official the number of the leads. Because our system is built on making Experts profile as accessible as possible, meaning the contact details of the expert is openly shared on our profile pages and on social media.

Interested parties might contact you after several touch points. For example, a client can read your article on one of channels or finds you on our platform, the can check your Workplace Experts profile, then go to your Linkedin profile and starts to follow you. And maybe a few months after s/he will contact you directly.

Our job is to increase these touch points and increase clients find you easily for your talent. Having said that our estimation shows our experts get 3-5 leads directly and indirectly through Workplace Experts in a year.

WeWent.com and Shake up the Workplace are two separate entities. While Workplace Experts is a talent pool for Learning and Development professionals, Shake up the Workplace is an initiative and a community founded by WeWent.com and a volunteer team to encourage and support organizations to take action for a better “future of work and workplace”. After years of experience hearing what cannot be done and internal struggles from Workplace Experts clients we brought together business leaders, startup entrepreneurs, academics, NGOs, and government workers under one platform to use collective brain and simple “give and receive” rules to work towards simple solutions.

WeWent.com experts are true inspirations for running the latest agenda for Shake up the Workplace academy, programs, and events.

Yes, when you are listing your profile and your offers please mention the team and how you work so the client knows you might be pulling others in.
