I wish they’d think a bit more carefully

before coding!

Every line of code is a decision!

By tone of voice and gesture, place the other

person at your same level or higher.

This includes self-deprecating humor.

It does not mean groveling.

Lower your relative social position

OTH

ERS People can usually tell if

you are being yourself or acting. Being yourself

shows there is nothing to be afraid of.

Try "being in the bar at 9pm with friends," quite

obviously relaxed and your regular self. (This is not an

excuse to be crude.)

Getting a result is heartening.

Good facilitators often generate a victory to help encourage and bind the

group.

If the session is ending, aim for a small goal, so that the group can end

with a victory.

S Avoid being lethargic yourself.

Body posture, muscle tone, eye alertness, all

communicate your energy level.

Even just sitting alert contributes energy to the room. Pay close attention

to the speaker, digest what they say, ask a question.

Future focus Notice what you want to see present.

Assume the main problem is gone...

What will notice is present now? Describe the way the day unfolds when it is unfolding well

Make a small change

In your next “Reflection Workshop” Ask:

“When things are working optimally, what I will notice happening is...”
