Deciding how to set up a room is crucial thing! It changes the whole dynamic of a meeting. It should actually be a decision that is part of tour design process. And the design process should be based on a few objectives... I know what a lot of work, can’t we just do this and get it over with
Yes, we can!
It really only takes a hour or so to define objectives and then decide on a few design elements including the set up of the room. (...and I tell you, it is fun too!) When you talk about why you do this meeting and you hear words like networking, business connections, learning, dynamic, modern or co-creation; the room set-up becomes a key factor. Round tables generate a very different feel and it can change group dynamics completely. With the right speaker support the whole learning environment become more engaging and more effective. And with a bit professional facilitation, you may be harvesting the brilliance of the room and win their hearts and minds.
