Preparation

On the one hand, the questions can be projected on a PowerPoint slide and the workshop participants can answer them on the template. On the other hand, the template could be created by the facilitators in advance. This requires writing the questions in the fingers and palm of the hand and then making the desired number of copies.

Execution

The sheet is handed out and the workshop participants answer the questions. Enough time may be allowed for constructive and valuable feedback. Optionally, this could be accompanied by some quiet music.

Tools list

• Worksheets, prepared
