Abstract :
The article suggests using meetings to bring teams closer together at an emotional as well as a rational level. Creativity (and that includes productivity) goes hand in hand with vulnerability: new ideas, just like any newborn living thing, are at risk from an early demise. The article suggests encouraging teams to introduce more direct personal experience into their conversation and more specific observation in a positive spirit. And start to unlearn the habitual styles of communication that tend to rely on debate, generalisations and critical judgement of others and, of course, silence.
