Ground rules established for VC2 events
|
Respect others when they are talking |
|
Listen and hear what others are saying. Let them finish talking. Think before you react |
|
Be conscious of body language and nonverbal responses |
|
The goal is not necessarily to agree but rather to gain a deeper understanding |
|
Talk about yourself and your own experiences |
|
Refrain from personal attacks and judgment. Focus on ideas |
|
Participate as you feel comfortable |
|
Treat this group as a private conversation. Do not repeat elsewhere what is said during the discussion |
|
Remember that while this process is not intended to be therapeutic, it may be for some |
|
Remove indicators of individual titles or positions, including name badges with credentials |
