Park ideas less relevant to the topic

During an ideation session, many thoughts / ideas / ideas are stated by the participants. Not all of them necessarily correspond to the purpose of the meeting. To avoid losing them, a trick is to store them in an "Parking lot" for subsequent discussion.
How is it going in practice? On a flipchart, write the word “Parking”, then tell the participants beforehand that some ideas expressed in the session might not be developed. In this case, they will be noted in the "Parking lot"!

Efficiency booster

Science is interested in biological rhythms and their influence on our performance. The study of chronotypes divides individuals according to their daily physiological needs.
Those called "bears", 50% of the population, have a biological rhythm set on office hours.
Those called "lions", 20% of the population, are morning people, less mobilized at the end of the afternoon.
Those called "wolves", 20% of the population, are evening people, difficult to mobilize in the morning.

Drink a drop to be on top!

Dehydration can cause you to lose up to 20% of your cognitive abilities. Drink regularly between meals and be sure to refill your water bottle before the start of your session. Cups available by the water fountains are made of corn starch, as part of our 'ZERO plastic' goal.

At Les Fontaines, the water fountains are connected to the Campus' water system. They are located in the halls of each villa, in the Atrium foyers, in the Forum Bar, in the Ateliers and at the entrance to the Auditorium.

Feel better

After 30 to 40 minutes, walking releases endorphins which contribute to our feeling of well-being, allows us to better situate ourselves in our life and strengthens our self-esteem. This is particularly true in nature, which liberates tension and allows people to step back by observing biodiversity. Select a path based on the free time you have ahead of you and enjoy!

What do you expect from your audience?

Adapt the format of your meeting according to what you expect from your audience.
You want your participants to be able to:
- describe and explain your content: a document to read or a presentation will suffice
- argue and apply the concepts presented: an oral presentation with impactful visual aids is the most suitable
- analyze, create and evaluate for themselves: a workshop where they are active (speaking, experiments, writing, role playing ...) is essential.

For each of these formats corresponds an adapted set-up. Think about it!
