FTF238 How to start a workshop: Which comes first - content or an activity? with Leanne Hughes

First Time Facilitator

Welcome back to another episode with your host, Leanne Hughes. I received a listener question from my friend, Juraj Holub and thought I'd share my thoughts on the show.
Here's the question:
I'm thinking about the flow of a session.
Let me share more details.
Goal: I'd like the workshop participants to practice and learn "how to open a presentation."
Option A:
- Participants go first and deliver their opening to their current best capabilities.
- We debrief each opening (What went well? What could be improved?)
- After that, I'll share and add additional tips on how to best open a presentation.
Option B:
- We start with a group brainstorming about the best ways to open a presentation.
- Only then do participants get the chance to step on stage and deliver their opening.
- We debrief each opening
