#24 - Managing Group Energy: Keep Your Participants Engaged & Focused

The group energy is vital for an effective workshop - it shapes engagement, affects focus, and determines how much learning will actually happen.

In this episode, you’ll learn how to notice, guide, and intentionally shape group energy across different phases of a session - so that focus, engagement, and active participation are actively supported, rather than left to chance.

We’ll explore what to do when energy is too flat, too scattered, or too intense - and you’ll leave with a fresh perspective plus practical ideas to lift, slow down, or deepen energy in the training room.
