Imagine that you have been hired as an independent consultant for the Town of Stoneham to design and conduct a BOS relaunch meeting to report your findings and to help improve meeting facilitation going forward. Assume that you have spent time learning about the BOS meeting culture and have attended many meetings, noticing a pattern of dysfunctional meeting interactions. a) Do you observe any divisions on this team? How do you think individual agendas on the BOS might affect the town overall? This is a meeting dilemma that could be found in a corporate setting, too, such as during an interdepartmental, management, or a board of directors meeting. If there are divisions within those groups, those divisive attitudes could trickle throughout the organization at large. In the case of a town government, it could be suggested that behavior in official meetings could have an impact on the community as neighbors align with certain leaders and against other neighbors. b) The audience was outside the scope of the camera that film the meeting of the BOS Stonham, but members of the audience exhibited behaviors such as eye-rolling, loud sighing, etc. throughout the meeting. How might this type of behavior be viewed as passive aggressive? c) What could be done to promote an environment that values a variety of ideas? Could you try (or have you tried) any of these ideas in your organization
