Background of Dialogue Experience

 

Dialogue Experience seeks to overcome barriers between “us” and “them” and to redefine “disability” as “ability,” and “otherness” as “likeness”. This happens mainly through the exhibition Dialogue in the Dark (DiD), and Dialogue Experience Silence (DES) through workshops for teams and leaders.

 

DiD (Dialogue-in-the-Dark) has been well received by many world class leaders, including participants of the World Economic Forum and members of Young Presidents’ Organization. 100 workshops were conducted in Hong Kong in 2010, and feedback from participants was extremely positive. 95% of them had no hesitation in referring the workshop to friends.

This is a challenging and intellectually demanding workshop specially designed for executives, professionals and leaders. In complete darkness, participants will be guided by visually impaired trainers to experience a 2-hour task-filled session. The facilitator will then guide the participants through a reflection, in which participants can share their insights and learn from each other.

 

DES (Dialogue Experience Silence), being the Asian first country that introduced this program, has already attracted thousands of people join in these unique, fun and inspiring workshops since April 2011. Many participants learnt to explore and discover their creativity, expression and potential through interacting with our professional Deaf trainers and experienced ways of effective communication in this silent world.

People in Hong Kong usually move fast and aim to work effectively. However, we may miss some important elements in improving our work and build a better team. Dialogue Experience Silence (DES) experiences enable the team to reflect on communication skills, team work, attitude towards challenges and how to think out of the box through temporary removing some of their human senses.
