  9. TOP 10 IDDS FACILITATION TIPS • Perspective: remember and remind participants of the bigger picture • Know whatyour role is, what the goals or task at hand, and guide the team to go through the design process together • Create a positive, welcoming environment for different types of people by asking open-ended questions • Seek to understand: listen + paraphrase what people said to make sure you understand correctly • Affirm people, have fun!  • Expect to be uncomfortable – and welcome it (acknowledge role differences, engage them and also encourage people to experiment in the other roles) • Expect conflict – and use it to tease out the roots of ideas • Expect unity – and welcome it • Make disagreements about the problem, not the person • Enough time for repport building – get to know each of your participants and help them get to know each othe

  10. GETTING “UNSTUCK” • Focus on the problem, not the person • Remember your purpose • Brainwriting (instead of brainstorming) • At Amazon, every meeting begins in total silence with “narratives.”The memos must tell a story: They have a conflict to resolve and should conclude with solutions, innovation, and happy customers — a structure that provides the meeting with direction.
