  • Interdepartmental co-development group

Interdepartmental co-development group Looking for a practice-based development activity? Feeling isolated and want to connect with your peers? Do you want to develop your leadership skills? Feeling like you’re at an impasse with a situation? Are you wondering how to have a difficult conversation? Would you like to improve your communication skills (active listening and giving feedback)? Join an interdepartmental co-development group, in English or French, led by a manager-coach.

What is a codevelopment group?

  • A group of people who help each other in their respective development.
  • A training approach that allows people to learn from each other in order to improve and consolidate their management practices.
  • A structured consultation exercise that focuses on real situations.
  • Members take turns acting as clients, presenting a real situation, and as consultants, helping the client to enrich their understanding and capacity for action. Consultants are encouraged to ask questions rather than suggest explanations and solutions.
  • Participants are encouraged to complete a personal diary to identify and document what they have learned in each session, and thus achieve long-term change.
  • Facilitated by a facilitator (trained to manage the consultation process).
  • With a commitment to continuity, attendance, confidentiality and adherence to agreed rules.

Time investment: In general, members meet once a month for 3 hours and sessions are from October to June.

What it takes to be a participant

  • Minimum of one year’s experience in management/supervision.
  • Available for managers (EX level).
  • Commitment to attend meetings.
  • Obtain approval from your immediate supervisor.

What it takes to be a facilitator (coach)

  • Have a recognized training in co-development group facilitation.
  • Or have already participated in a co-development group.
  • Significant management experience at middle or senior level.

For more information, have a look at this videos: "Developing yourself with a codevelopment group"
