Home Team Meet Up #3: The Actions
It can be difficult to make the transition from conference-based learning to specific applications and improvements in our work efforts at home. This final Home Team meetup offers participants a chance to reflect on conference takeaways and commit to a future action. Each team member will set and record a specific and attainable collaboration goal for her/himself. Later you will share your goal with a partner, who will provide suggestions for achieving it as well as some peer-based accountability. Find your worksheet on pages 31 – 32.
