It’s always great to have group members who are willing to share, but sometimes the sharing can take over and leave very little time for others to chime in. In these cases, it’s always great to grab onto one key point the group member is trying to make and then redirect to another group member who has been quiet and ask what he/she thinks. You may have to interrupt the talkative group member to do this, but when you use his/her commentary as a launching point for further conversation, you are simultaneously demonstrating that you hear what he/she is saying while also showing respect for the time and opinions of the others in the group.
Check out this great overview from Zoom! If your internet connection is weak, sharing a video can be a challenge. Some facilitators find it helpful to simply paste the link to the video session in the chat and then ask everyone to watch the video in their own browser. Once everyone has watched, everyone rejoins the conversation on Zoom.
Group Finder is your go-to to find your group’s unique registration link, to export a list of your group members, and to share attendance each week.
