In this episode, Beth Cougler Blom talks with Dr. Monty Badami about how we can use an anthropological lens in facilitation to engage in collective sense-making. If we can think like anthropologists, we will have access to the most valuable resource in understanding complex experiences and diverse groups...and that resource is our humanity.
Beth and Monty also talk about:
- creating safety for participants
- reading the room and seeing patterns
- what it means to be human
- reflexivity and ethnography
- using narrative arcs and other frameworks
- friction points, self-kindness and learning from failure
