Active inclusion practices in meetings and discussions
To ensure diverse perspectives are heard, counteracting patterns where a few voices dominate. Multiple techniques can increase participation breadth: • Round-robin contributions give everyone a turn to speak • Written input before or during discussion allows quieter people to contribute • Small-group… An ongoing team scaffold (facilitation practice), run at meetings, not as a one-off session.
