I might be interested in one of these cooperative Problem-Solving interactions *

Section 2 of 3

Possible process agreements for intentional interactions

Many of the above types of interactions are commonly available.
But could your interactions be even better with certain "process" agreements?

In this section, you can indicate which processes for interactions you might find beneficial.

Timing turns *

It's OK for each person to take as long as they wish; others can speak up when they want (so we can be spontaneous) I prefer having turns be equal, without interruptions (so we can relax, listen, and not compete for “airtime”)

Taking turns (in groups) *

It's OK however turn-taking happens, with no agreed-upon structure I prefer when people use an agreed-upon structure for taking turns

If you prefer a structure for taking turns, which of these methods do you like? *

Passing a talking stick Going around a circle By raised hands (each person having a chance to take a turn before anyone else has a subsequent turn)

For me to feel comfortable being fully authentic *

I would want the option of complete confidentiality for whatever I might share I would want the option of others not later referring to what I said or did

Please share anything additional about process agreements that can make interactions work better for you. *
