We ask this question when we’re thinking, talking, meeting, training, and presenting. It’s to check with ourselves - am I making sense to myself? And then. am I making sense to you? It’s kind of asking, ‘Do you get it?’ We use the phrase ‘making sense' habitually and unconsciously. It’s a human thing. We develop our natural Sensemaking abilities as we learn and grow up.

We’re not to blame! Our meeting cultures date back decades, even centuries to how parliaments and governments functioned. These old systems run deep and aren’t quick or easy to change when they’re passed on via generations, leaders and cultures. It’s a risk to change or suggest something needs to change. Instead we endure, tolerate and bemoan boring, inefficient and ineffective meetings.online or otherwise.

If overwhelm, stress or uncertainty creeps up and dumps on you, get out a pen and paper. and map it all out. - Map out the overwhelm: what’s going on? - Map out the stress: what’s happening - what are you thinking about? - Map out the uncertainty: what do you know and what could you do about that? Rather than endless thinking thinking thinking, sensemaking can help because it involves the visualization of what can seem like a mess of information.

While guiding a group with mentoring advice recently, the most common statement in their questions and sentences was, ‘I’m struggling with…' Learning, growing, changing and adapting is indeed a struggle.

Too many boring and dull online meetings, right? How do we make things more interesting? And are we waiting for someone else to do the ‘be more creative’ thing?

We could expect that once we’ve decided, all will be good and the magic will just happen. It would be like signing up to a course but not doing any of the course work.
