First Ten Minutes, Low Pressure

Activity

2 min

In the next 10 minutes, you will say your name once, hear several other voices, and notice that new-seminar hopes and worries are usually shared rather than unique. Short contributions count: a name, a few words, or an anonymous response are all valid ways to take part. The aim is to make the room feel easier to speak in, not to put anyone on the spot.
