Genes, themes and memes — quickly forming relationships so people speak up

From Shawn Callahan at anecdote: A forming exercise were group members share some­thing that’s happened in their life that’s really shaped them (genes), tell some­thing that’s a repeating theme in their life (theme) and recount a story they often tell (meme). The session can take two to three hours but at the end everyone has an insight in what makes the others tick and from that point on they are less likely to slag off at each other. They know each other as people not just roles and companies. · Go to Genes, themes and memes — quickly forming rela­tion­ships so people speak up →
