CPWG Meeting Management

Seems as though we're already running out of time and we could use more interactivity on the, albeit large, calls. This is just a place to share thoughts and make proposals.

Agree, particularly to those on the audio bridge but as much as possible to encourage comments/questions on the chat that would be good

Please NO. You have people who are more writer than speaker and the other way around. I realy prefer to talk but the tools (like this one) obliged me to write. Too much...

That makes sense but how do we keep people from babbling on too long or saying exactly the same thing as the person before them. We need to. do some training perhaps.

I suggest 2 things

Use a 2’ timer for all

Ask the usual suspects to be exemplary

Another way, at the beginning of the meeting to remind the participants that no need to take the mic if the discussion point was raised by any other participants.

Some participants think that talking in the session gives indication that they are active. Maybe to assure to the participants that getting and contributing into drafting team what makes an active participant.

Good idea. Perhaps this is a good reason to use polling so people feel engaged but don't feel the need to make repetitive interventions

Perhaps folks can post +1's in chat in agreement; we really should limit use of polls to answering a proposed position or question.

Why do you say that @Justine C. ? Isn't a poll quicker than counting +1s in that chat?

JC

Justine C. Sun 17 May 2020 2:27AM

Depends.

  1. Polls are better for yes or no questions. And if staff need to prep for polls in advance, then how to use polls in relation to comments coming in on the fly?

  2. I feel too many polls are disruptive and folks may get lost in terms of timing - so polling during a call may be problematic.

Well, it's all an experiment but polls can be yes no, multiple choice, multiple choices. That covers a lot of ground. You're trying to get feedback on language and I thi K that's REALLY rough. Multiple languages, etc. People presenting to the CPWG need to
have thought questions, I think. Which of these are priorities? Which of these two things is more important, etc. Most aren't really capable of suggesting better language. Just my thoughts on a Saturday evening
