Objectives
To get participants to share their opinions, encourage listening, and promote better discussion in the group.
Method
Divide the group into pairs.
Ask the pairs to describe what gift they would give each other.
Once they have completed this brings the group back together. Then each member must describe in detail their exercise partner’s gift from you, why they chose it? And, what it says about their partner?
This exercise also encourages questioning and listening skills within the group.
Discussion Questions
Did anyone feel uncomfortable doing this exercise? Is so, why?
How can we use this exercise for the rest of the training event?
Appropriate Time Required
