Aligning on rules for success
Want to share feedback about the podcast? It would be much appreciated. 3 min survey here:
https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/N72QP67
Establish ground rules for your meetings and align these with your attendees to get them bought in, building on any pre-defined rules your organisation already has.
Consider what should the rules be and why?
Where possible, make rules based around specific behaviours, for example:
- Seek understanding of others’ perspectives by asking genuine questions;
- Share your rationale when expressing a view, as well as share all pertinent information and examples when applicable;
- Check alignment among participants before moving off of a topic;
- When using pre-defined terms, ensure everyone knows what they mean;
- Test the veracity of each-others’ assumptions;
- Request and encourage dissent when others’ share an opposing perspective;
- Jointly agree next steps before ending a meeting.
You should compose your own ground rules, seeking input from the other attendees if possible to garner insight and help establish buy-in. Then consider how to communicate the rules and ensure buy-in with all participants.
Your task for today is to take 5-10 minutes to establish your ground rules and generate buy-in for them.
