It is the moment when you shape participants’ motivation, engagement, the way they interact, and their level of activity in the workshop.In this episode, we look at how to design powerful openings that build motivation, connection, and credibility right from the start - as well as how to pick your priorities to ensure that your opening becomes the perfect stage exactly for your workshop.
