How you’re missing out on the gold

It’s another online meeting ... the meeting leader or facilitator announces they’re about to put us into breakout rooms to chat.
We get to connect with others, to have a smaller, more intimate conversation and to dive in to a topic or share ideas.
But too often the insights from breakout rooms and group activities aren’t noted or are lost, and not reincorporated into the meeting.
At other times, we can summarise or distill contributions too far.
Recently, 20 mins in breakout rooms was distilled down to one word. That’s taking a summary too far! The meaning gets lost, the effort wasted and the benefits and learnings are ... gone.
If you’re inviting people to have a conversation, be sure to think about how you’ll handle and leverage those ideas and contributions.
Sure ... you don’t have to hear from everyone.
But don’t hear back from no one!
How will you utilize the gold that’s been generated?
Because that’s what it is.
Absolute GOLD! ⭐️
We don’t have all the answers. The group often does.
Listen to them.
