Tenderloin - The end of a busy week, we’re into routine now, and although I’m still getting used to early mornings, setting off in the dark, and coping with different types of weather, I feel like I’m getting somewhere.
When workshopping in Scandinavia I learned from another trainer to ask a question and then count to 10 in my head. It was a great way of getting even the most hesitant students to break the silence with an answer or response. And once they realised that the ‘uncomfortable’ silence can be broken with participation, there was more of it. I found the pauses could be quite long in Scandinavia, but I’ve never reached 10 seconds in the UK.
Thanks for the post Stephan.
