Talking with your feet

At the beginning of the workshop I'm helping teach this week, we ask everyone to share how they feel about the subject we're learning. We place signs around the room that symbolize different emotions and thoughts about the planning and administration of projects.  (See the photo.)  Then each mission agency leader moves to stand by the sign that best describes how they feel about the topic.  Many end up with me under the sign: "What's this all about?" :)  Others choose "I love it".  Still others, "Convince me!", etc.  Then at the end of the workshop we do this again only to find that many people have found a new location.  Our goal as we teach is to allow everyone to actually practice and implement what they are learning, so it's hard not to be more excited about this stuff by the end of the week!
