Exercises for Personalization

Personalization exercises tailor the room to the people in it: role, path, goal, or the specific connection someone came looking for. Choose these early, before a one-size-fits-all agenda starts working against the people it was built for.

This category groups exercises by the Gathering Effectiveness pillar they strengthen.
