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!
