Common Ground

Come eseguirlo

1. 1

   Have participants stand in a circle with enough space to step forward.

2. 2

   Explain: 'I'll read statements. If it applies to you, step forward (or stand up). Look around to see who else stepped forward. Then step back.'

3. 3

   Read a series of statements ranging from lighthearted to more meaningful: 'Step forward if you've lived in more than one country', 'if you speak more than one language', 'if you've changed career direction', 'if you felt nervous coming here today.'

4. 4

   Pause briefly after each statement to let people see who's with them.

5. 5

   After 10–15 statements, debrief: 'What surprised you? What did you notice?'

Suggerimenti

• Mix fun/easy statements with meaningful ones — start light and build depth gradually.

• Avoid statements that could single out or embarrass individuals.

• The facilitator should participate and step forward themselves when true.

Variazioni

Run seated with hand raises for less mobile groups. Use for values alignment: 'Step forward if fairness is a core value for you at work.' Run anonymously for sensitive topics.
