A Meeting Skill Exercise Workshop Notes

Rf D/Notes 19 Dec 03 Attendees: Mike, Yixin, Gina, James, Beth, Kristin, Sarah This is an Meeting Skill practice for the participants. MODEL: FSNP(Forming, Storming, Norming, Performing) Background:This is a group development model that can be applied to group meeting, especially when it's a new group. A good facilitator is important. Essences of the Model: Forming: clear of the problems(statements). Storming: can be in the form of brainstorm(it's not the only tool)or open discussion... This is the stage where most of the groups die.(tips: Use a piece of paper to capture the good ideas.) Norming: A process in which the ideas got at the storming stage can be condensed down to the solutions. Performing: the stage that the group can come to a conclusion or solution. The practice: Mike chose the issue RfD is facing right now as agenda of the meeting: How RfD will be functioning next year. Participants chose a facilitator and began the meeting. Forming: Goal of RfD   Self-directed learning group to learn leadership skills PERC requiers   PERC leadership requires consistent attendants.   Problems:   Having an agenda that appeals to both the advanced and basic members of the RfD   Lack of attendance   RSVP or lack thereof   Reconciliation of old and new people   End of old cycle, beginning of new cycle </li>  Smooth flow when new people keep comming in </li>  Convey fundamentals for new people </li>  Lack of ownership for new people </li> </ul> Norming: Based on the storming stage, participants started another round of discussion trying to sort out the problems and get into the solution. Participants agreed on that the key problem is that where to go now to achieve the goal of RfD. Performing: due to time limit, finally Mike brought his proposal for the next 4 months as of Jan. 2004, which is: in each session, one of the advanced members leads part of the RfD( 10 to 30 minutes) to the new members, until all the four advanced members ready and a round fundamental stuff for the new members. All agree on the proposal with the suggestion that advanced members will lead a session he or she hasn't led before. Oranges for today:go through the meeting process within the frame of FSNP model. It's a quite useful way to learn the meeting skills. Lemons for today:Storming without norming;Product with the time limit; Some frustration when advices are not paid enough attention, or process disrupted.
