Groups tasked with providing different views on a topic or issue, solving problems, coordinating complex work processes, or implementing change initiatives are often ineffective in getting decisions made and procedures in place.
The selection of a meeting location is very important because the attitudes of participants are affected by the choice. Leaders have more difficulty accomplishing objectives if the room is too hot, the seats are too uncomfortable, the whirr of air vents makes it difficult to hear, and if there is a constant din of noise bustling outside the meeting room doors.
Guided discussions are a type of structured exercise that enable meeting leaders to ask the group a series of planned questions designed to get them to wrestle with topics and issues at a deeper level. As they answer the questions, the facilitator summarizes their content and may also play devil’s advocate to drive for deeper content or application, and guides the discussion to the next question.
