Hosting Conversations about Questions that Matter
How to effectively transition from one question to another?
I wanted to canvas the facilitators out there and ask: How do you effectively transition from one question or topic, to another? I facilitated an event that went very well, but found that when it was time to move on to another topic, it was awkward cutting in the conversation to do that. Any suggestions out there?

I always give them a warning.... 5 minutes 2 minutes... and then when the time is up..... I ask them to wind down their conversations... finish what you are saying and we will transition.
I want to honor conversation so I am not inclined to announce a change without some warning and time to wind down. When the room conversation is nearly diminished... I say 15 seconds and we will change tables.
