Good to have you here!

Reflact is the contemporary framework for teaching and learning.

Our framework Reflact (reflect + act) is interdisciplinary and builds on the principles of systemic teaching and learning.

Why Reflact?

We understand learning and teaching differently. We think anything can be googled, youtubed, ChatGPTed. So, instead of telling students what to learn, reflection is more relevant than content. And… action!

Hence, reflect + act = Reflact.

At Reflact, we believe that learning is a co-created, relational process. Rooted in systemic thinking, our approach combines reflection and action to foster meaningful change—within individuals, teams, and entire organizations.

Through structured dialogue, appreciative perspectives, and our Reflact Hoops, we enable spaces where every voice matters.

Reflact isn't about teaching—it’s about facilitating learning that’s alive, collaborative, and context-sensitive.

When reflacting, we do not differentiate between students and teachers. We all learn. We all teach each other. That is what we call lehrnen in german. A creation of lehren (=to teach) + lernen (to learn)

Join us in redefining the learning experience. Let's not just teach or learn—let's Reflact!

Whether you're in education, corporate training, or organizational development, Reflact offers a versatile framework adaptable to any discipline or setting.

What are Reflact Hoops?

A Reflact Hoop builds on circular learning.

We reflact in stages: task, competence and development oriented. Throughout the length of a course, be it a one-day-training, a university semester or a year-long advanced systemic education.

Our framework Reflact is interdisciplinary and based on the principles of systemic teaching. Online and offline.

How do we do that?

Let’s assume that knowledge can be very easily googled today. Hence, we see ourselves more as curators and process facilitators than as teachers or instructors.

We approach complex issues with Reflact Hoops in nine steps, which we encounter again and again in a circular way throughout our journey:

 
 
  • Every continuing education, every semester, every module, every lecture begins with the question: what does it take to be able to say at the end that it was valuable learning? In addition to preparation and choreography work, we reflect: How can we best prepare for what we cannot prepare for? Our experiential knowledge about group dynamics assists us.

  • With mindful communication, we create contact, right from the start. A comparison of expectations at the beginning creates orientation and meaning. In the end, everyone recognizes a benefit for themselves, the motivation for independent learning increases.

  • We create space for dialogue in order to anchor what has been learned. We view the form of the "Reflact-Tandems" as further education of the future: We teachers learn from each other. We record our findings in the form of an agile script.

Since 2023, we have been sharing our knowledge in a further education programme tested with pioneer groups.

What is driving us?

 

The joy of doing and acting is our motivator. We are grateful for our participants’ feedback.

We are happy when systemic thinking, feeling, and acting find a place in science, research, and teaching.

Hey there! We are Dr Astrid Dobmeier and Dr Veronika Sweet.

We are experienced systemic consultants. As freelancers, we work in the field of process support on the macro, meso, and micro levels: in organizations, with teams, and in individual contexts. In deep and broad transformation processes as well as in small change projects. Profit and non-profit.

We love to share our knowledge with passion. Individually and as a teaching tandem. At universities and in further education.

Why as a tandem? Because we believe that this is what will make up the continuing education of the future: we reflact and learn from each other, constantly question ourselves - and become better.
