everyone’s name yet.

identify two criteria that your team will use to assess how the interview meeting went.

POST-INTERVIEW DISCUSSION Agenda

1. (Facilitator and Team Members) How did this meeting go?

Rely on the materials from the George Washington University web site for questions to assess how
the meeting went. Here is the link: Team Effectiveness

Measure something specific about your meeting rather than just the generic “How did it go?” What
went really well and what could have been better? What were the assessment criteria identified in the
pre-meeting?

2. (Facilitator) Any changes needed for the next meeting?

Be specific as this might include any changes resulting from team members not finishing readings,
changes as a result of Dr. Chanley’s feedback, or your own changes as a result of your review of how
the meeting went this time. Someone needs to make notes so these things do not get overlooked for
the next meeting.

3. (Facilitator) Review the instructions for the next meeting and set up roles and
date/time.

Your next meeting should be the Content Discussion in Module 5. Please make sure that you have
read through the next meeting instructions and noted what needs to be completed
(read/watched/done).

4. (Host) Ends meeting and waits for recording email so the URL to the meeting
discussion can be uploaded in both the Google doc and for the team assignment in Canvas.

IF you have any trouble, you can call me.
