If social interaction, reflection, and hands-on learning are your thing then here are a few challenges worth considering:
Being curious takes practice: Holding back, listening, and then asking questions, not offering an opinion is hard.
Inside-out approach: When topics are offered up, check that the topic is within the control of the person offering it up. It’s easy to talk around a subject where the problem is “out there” and not in the room.
Be patient: Look for commitment, not success.
And finally, when you accept that the problem is in the room, the good news is, so too is the solution.
