Set or remind the rules
„Only one person is talking”
(especially when there are strong emotions, when you talk
you don’t listen)
„One side talks and then another”
„A facilitator decides who talks next”

„It might be difficult to talk about problems
and this is why we suppose a positive
intent…”
„You might want to talk about issues that
are not in the agenda but …”
