How can I encourage participation in my team meetings?

There are several strategies you can use! Consider starting with icebreakers to make everyone comfortable.

What kind of icebreakers do you recommend?

You could try fun questions like 'If you could have dinner with any historical figure, who would it be?' or team-building activities.

That sounds great! How can I ensure everyone gets a chance to speak?

You might implement a round-robin format where each person has a chance to share their thoughts, or use a talking stick.

What if someone dominates the conversation?

In that case, gently redirect the conversation by asking others for their opinions or setting time limits for each speaker.
