    How does sharing experiences on social media improve or worsen that experience?

    --
    On this episode, Founder of Aristotle's Cafe, Hassan Ghiassi Facilitates a discussion with a great group of strangers and friends at DICE Cafe in Bangkok, Thailand. 

    A little bit about the format of the discussion...

    Aristotle's Cafe is a space to practice speaking with people in your local community. Here you will be asked to share your opinions and ideas with one another honestly and respectfully. You might be asked to support your views, and I think you’ll be ready for that. Here, we create skilled global citizens. Individuals ready to participate in society and actively shape it. 

    These sessions will help you improve your leadership, critical thinking, public speaking, active listening skills, cultural intelligence, personal development, and communication.

    If you're interested, we also have a facilitation training course so you can lead these type of discussions as well. (bit.ly/facilitate30)

    We have 3 very important rules

    1. The Leader of the discussion can only ask questions and I will try their best not to give any opinions.

    2. There are no right or wrong answers – This is time to be free with your thinking. I only ask that you be respectful in your agreement and disagreement.

    3. Finally, our discussion last about 1 hour, please stay the entire time if you wish to take part. Turn all cell phones – computers, pagers, cameras off, they are not allowed during this time. 

    Finally, this isn’t a rule, but just a warning. We might end with more questions than answers. So you might walk away from this experience with more questions, frustrations or ideas, and I hope that you share them with people that didn’t make it here and join us again with them next week. 

    Each session begins by each person writing down a question and then the group voting on which one to start with.

    During this discussion, the group voted to start with the question, "How does sharing experiences on social media improve or worsen that experience?"
