The RESET Protocol for Workshop Recovery

Workshops can derail unexpectedly. Implement the RESET Protocol to recover. **R**eframe the problem or objective. **E**xplain the deviation and why a change is needed. **S**implify the current activity or agenda. **E**ngage participants by asking for their input on the path forward. **T**ransition smoothly to the revised plan. This structured approach prevents panic, re-establishes facilitator authority, and brings participants back to a productive mindset, ensuring your workshop achieves its goals despite mid-session challenges.
