  4. I. Introduction to AGroups • What are they? • Who can join? Who shouldn’t? • What do we talk about? • How often do we meet? • How much does it cost? • How safe? • How much commitment do I need to make? • What will I get from it?

  5. Commitment to Confidentiality • Basic Confidentiality: what has been discussed here cannot be mentioned outside of the AGroup. Not even with partners or spouses. • “Attila The Hun” confidentiality – absolute confidentiality, cannot be discussed even among ourselves outside this room.

  6. II. Personal Introductions • Go-around 1: • Name, nicknames, how to remember me • School, AIESEC involvement • Work • Family • Hobbies , projects, groups and interests • Why I’m here. My expectations.

  7. Optional Starters (if you have time) • What did you want to be when you were young? • If you had to dabble in the arts, what would that be? • What would I want to do for my next adventure? • Name three people who have been your mentors. • What was your relationship with your father and how has it influenced your life today? • What did you do on your first job and how has it influenced you today? • How much of a risk-taker are you?

  9. IV. Personal Updates • Go-around 3, Updates: • On a scale of 1 (Total Disaster) to 10 (Super Fantastic) tell us first your Ratings - how you feel - about Business, then about Family • Business/Career – why you rated it as # and tell us about your ups and downs in business, job, or project. • Family/Personal – why you rated it as # and more about relationships with spouse, children, partner, or siblings or parents. • Issues to Parking Lot -Look back above and focus on what issues came up and what may merit a discussion or presentation later. Have someone list the Parking Lot issues on a flipchart.

  10. IV. Personal Explorations • Review the Parking Lot list • Prioritize for presentations

  11. V. Sample Presentations • Presenter • Coach • Scribe

  12. Art of Listening • Let presenter lay out problem and what he wants from group • Explore the feelings rather than the logic. Normally a presenter knows his options and his logic but needs to explore his feelings. Echo and amplify his feelings. • Always use “I” or “My understanding” or “My experience”. Never “You” or “your problem is …” or “what you should do…” • Allow the presenter to summarize his analysis and his feelings toward each alternative “solution”

  13. V. Housekeeping & Wrap-up • Name of this AGroup • Frequency of meetings • Who to invite as additional members • Next meeting date • Appoint Moderator, Treasurer, next Meeting Organizer • Web Group medium (Facebook Groups, Yahoogroups, Ning, etc)

  14. V. Housekeeping & Wrap-up • Final Go-around: How I feel about this first AGroup meeting.
