Talking Chips
Talking Chips is a method designed to manage group discussions by ensuring balanced participation. Each participant uses a 'chip' as a token to speak, promoting equal opportunity to contribute and curbing dominant voices.
Comment l'animer
- 1
Provide each participant with a chip or coin at the beginning of the meeting.
- 2
Explain that to speak, one must place their chip in the center of the table.

Once all chips are in the center, participants can retrieve their chips to speak again, repeating the process.

Continue the cycle until the discussion is complete.
Conseils
Use this method to encourage quieter participants to share their thoughts, while also preventing any single individual from dominating the conversation.
It's helpful to remind participants of the purpose of the chips periodically to maintain balance.
Variantes
For larger groups, consider using multiple chips per participant to allow for more extended discussions. Alternatively, assign different colors to chips to represent different topics or levels of contribution.
