What are your favorite activities to use? Please feel free to comment below.

A couple of tips in selecting activities:
1. What is the purpose of the activity - to spark conversation, create new insights, clarify, expand, facilitate action, support goals, other?
2. How long do you have to undertake the activity?
3. Remember to leave as much time around dialogue as the actual activity itself, if you are coaching.
4. What supports/materials will you need?
5. How will this connect in with other activities or themes you are working around?
6. What pre-work is there to set people up for maximum advantage?
7. What post-work is there?

Have a great start to your week,
Jennifer
