Catherine, I’m so grateful for your time and engagement with me on this! Vielen Dank! About the networking table, I did this and the table was FULL. What I failed to do was acknowledge / point out that the purpose of that table is for networking type of information, so that the rest of the evening can be dedicated to the conversations about topics of mutual concern. Maybe if I had said that before the closing circle, people would have avoided saying that kind of stuff, taking up valuable time for reflection.
About the closing circle, this is very interesting to me. If I understand correctly, you ask for a pre-designated speaker for each topic ahead of time that knows their responsibility in the closing circle. Then, you call those people specifically to represent that particular group by title. What do the other people who were part of that group say or do in the closing circle? Using that format, does it still feel very open and self-organizing? I wonder if it feels a little bit like grade school? Am not saying it does, but just wondering. Thanks again for the good food for thought. All the best, Leslie Zucker Trainer, Facilitator and Life Coach for Life's Dancers +1 (202) 425 7637 [email protected] www.lesliezucker.com
