Modernize Your Meetings: Unleash Creativity & Cut Through the Clutter

Meetings don’t have to be so hard—and problem solving doesn’t have to feel like guessing.
Join Michelle Hobbs and Peter Plumeau, seasoned facilitators at Reframe Lab, for a dynamic online session that demystifies design thinking and shows you how to actually use it to make meetings more purposeful and solutions more effective.
This webinar walks you through the essentials of design thinking—not the jargon, but the mindset and methods that help teams get unstuck, think more creatively, and move forward with intention.
Whether you’re leading a scrappy team or wrangling big ideas with big-hearted collaborators, you’ll leave with practical tools to:
- Frame problems in ways that spark better solutions
- Design meetings that are human-centered and energizing (yes, it’s possible)
- Use prototyping, feedback, and iteration to move from “meh” to meaningful
Bring your curiosity, your sticky challenges, and your camera-ready coffee mug. Let’s reframe how we work—together.
Who it’s for:
Leaders, changemakers, and team members in mission-driven organizations who are tired of business-as-usual and ready to think (and work) differently.
