On 8 October 2025, blinc carried out the second GBS Motivational Workshop at the premises of a local men’s choir in Bretzfeld. The group consisted of adults with long-standing ties to the region and a broad range of life experiences. To create a positive and accessible learning atmosphere, the workshop began with an interactive icebreaker adapted to the participants’ preferences, setting the tone for constructive collaboration.
Participants engaged actively with the IKIGAI reflection and the skills-assessment elements, which helped them consider how their personal strengths might connect to sustainable business ideas. Despite varying levels of familiarity with structured reflection methods, the group worked together effectively and supported each other throughout the process.
The workshop concluded with several promising idea directions and a clear interest in taking part in the upcoming mentoring sessions. We thank everyone involved for their openness and enthusiasm.
