Shared Book Insights Workshop

You know those times when you've read a fantastic book, and you wish everyone on your team would read it – and apply the learning to the business?
This session guide lays out a process to reduce the heavy task of reading a book alone to the lighter job of a shared effort. Information from the book and the ideas it inspires are applied to the company – all in just 120 minutes. The session design is based on a 10-participant team for a 300-page book. The total allocated time is 115 minutes with a 5-minute buffer.
For remote/online collaboration with the same sized team and book, the time allocation is 100 minutes, with a 20-minute buffer.
Due to the nature of the session, an icebreaker or warm-up is optional. Since participants arrive with pre-written Info & Ideas, they are excited to jump in and share them. However, if you do want to use up the 5-minute buffer for the icebreaker, you could ask them to share what snack they received in their package and how long it took them to eat it. 🙂
