Engagement in breakout rooms

About This Video

It sets that expectation from the start that I need to be here and not on my phone checking e-mail or walking away from my computer completely with my camera off. This is the type of thing where I need to actually be present. And the other is because there's a little bit of that needing to rely on one another, let's say. You're going. To a breakout room in pairs. You don't want to leave the other person hanging. I have seen it happen, but generally I think most of us know that if we're going to be in a breakout. Room. That another person is counting on. Us to actually. Show up and participate with them. So that's the engagement piece. So now let's think about applying knowledge. And when I say this, maybe it's a situation where you are teaching a new concept and you want people to actually apply that information. And put it into practice, OK? I've learned this. So now what do I do with this information? For example when I run 4 tendencies workshops. I teach about the. Four different tendencies and how you might communicate differently with a person of a different tendency than your own. So then I want people to go into a breakout room in small groups and to actually discuss. Now that we know this, now that we know our tendency, how do we communicate differently with people so that we get a little bit more out of them or that we can have a more effective relationship with that person? So it allows them to take that information right away and then apply it.
