We operate as an ‘ungroup’ (that is always up for discussion by the groups itself). We have now been meeting for a little over 2 years and a format has emerged that tends to follow a loose structure.
- People share things they think others in the group would find interesting.
- This might be an interesting tool or technique or new books or talks by others working in the field.
- The group then break into smaller groups of 3 or 4 and discuss challenges they are facing in their work.
- The group as a whole comes back together and shares the discussions from each smaller group.
Having said all that, the ‘ungroup’ may well choose to focus on something or change the format for a particular week. If there is a specific learning or development focus for the next meeting then it will be listed on Next Meeting page.
