How you behave in a nightclub is different than how one behaves when they walk into a conference room. Do not book the venue first, which I think is all of our instincts. You want to close the circle because that actually shifts the conversation. It actually gives a border in a way that turns two lines into a group.
Priya Parker is an expert in group dialogue and conflict resolution, and she uses her unique background to rethink how we come together. Priya teaches us how to turn our gatherings into opportunities for more meaningful connection with others.
