“With a very talkative member, you can…
• Ask the group for more input, hoping that others speak up. • Ask explicitly to hear from other group members. • Ask this individual to briefly pause to create space for others. • Interrupt this individual, particularly if they’ve interrupted someone else or are talking over others.
With a very reserved member, you can:
• Ask the group for more input, hoping that this member speaks up. • Ask explicitly to hear from this group member. • Ask others to briefly pause to create space for this individual.”
