Managing New Beginnings

Before we begin

Three minutes, before Session 1 opens. This gives us a starting point to compare against at the close, and it shapes what gets emphasised today. Your individual answers are never shown to the facilitator or to your employer, only the group picture.

Used only to match your two responses. The facilitator sees the group picture, never your individual answers, and nothing is shared with your employer.
