You're leading a peer support workshop. How do you redirect a participant who constantly veers off topic?
Imagine you're at the helm of a peer support workshop, your participants engaged and eager to learn. But there's a hitch—one participant keeps steering the conversation away from the topic at hand. It's a common challenge, and handling it with finesse is crucial to maintain the workshop's flow and ensure that everyone benefits from the time together. With some strategic approaches, you can redirect off-topic discussions without discouraging participation or stifling the valuable peer-to-peer interaction that is the heart of these workshops.
