Coach Laurie explains some key ways to help our brains do better in times of high stress. Try them in your huddles.
Start by asking a question of the group such as what are you looking forward to? Check in with each person.
Do a 1-2 minute activity to feel appreciation, humor, or creativity. For example, share a funny story or an appreciation for each person.
Very important: Ask the group for permission for safety feedback. For example, is everyone ok with being reminded by a colleague to keep their hands off their faces when they unknowingly touch their face? Pick a funny code word that can be said in public when your co-worker touches their face. Be sure to ask how each person likes the feedback given. Some people may prefer feedback privately, or they may prefer it with humor.
