Using Ice Melters

I see the need for ice melters in sessions. These could be as simple as sharing real-life stories or creating situations to engage participants during sessions.

I feel people express themselves more freely when there is the relevance to their day-to-day lives.... lives they live outside of work and its impact on the way they think and behave... during lunch breaks, i see having small conversations of family, weather, "food"!!, help bridge the divide and melt the walls that we generally carry around when we are with new people.

Today at the Mumbai ROI workshop, we had participants share their learning experiences, add value to others' projects... and have more meaningful and less threatening conversations. Gr8 group dynamics. Stemming out of participants having more open communication.

we need ice melters coz people matter!
