Facilitating a design book club
Over the last 2 months I've been facilitating a book club themed around getting a job as a product/ux designer. The current format is - People arriving - Rating the book out of 5 and talking about why - An exercise or 2 (for articulating design decisions we each noted down a time when we had a difficult stakeholder, why it happened and what we learned from it) - How well use what we learn to improve our job search - Open forum - What should we read next? Has anyone facilitated a book club before? I'm trying to strike the balance between giving people the space to talk, keeping good time and us leaving feeling more confident in the area we're talking about. I know it's not strictly facilitation like design sprints but I do see it as facilitating a group of people to get to a certain outcome. Any ideas or advice would be amazing to hear!

@David Finnegan Thanks for the feedback! How do you feel about doing the summary? I like summarising because it helps me learn and helps those who haven't read the full book to get more context, but for those that have read it fully I wonder how much value it has The 1 issue I have with an open forum for people to talk casually about the book is that it could end up with some of the more vocal people talking more. I'm thinking about how to ensure everyone is able to contribute to talk regardless of how social they are or how much of the book they've read Any thoughts on this?
📍Where is everyone from?📍
Hello Facilitators👋 I'm really curious about where everyone is from. I'd love to make this a mega post where we can see how diverse the Facilitator Club community is. Who knows, you might find a lot more people in your area than you thought! Once I have lots of answers on this post, I want to make a nice graph!
