Methodology step by step: |
1. Explain that only the person holding the ball may speak. When they receive the ball, each participant should introduce themselves and say what their expectations are for the course /workshop / training session. 2. Give the ball to a participant. Once they have finished talking, they should throw or pass the ball to another person. Repeat this until everyone has spoken. 3. Write down the main points on the flip chart or board. 4. After everyone has spoken, show the plan for the workshop / training session / course and point out how the expectations of the participants can be met. If possible, change the plan to include the points raised by the participants.
NOTE: This is also an opportunity to clearly indicate which expectations will not be met. In addition, this exercise offers the possibility to evaluate, at the end of the event, to what extent the participants’ expectations were met satisfactorily. |
