HERE ARE A FEW TIPS THAT<br />
MAY BE HELPFUL IN GETTING<br />
THE MOST OUT OF THE GRI.<br />
GRI discussions are NOT panels. They are like afterdinner<br />
conversations in one’s own living room with a few<br />
good friends under the guidance of the moderating Chair.<br />
Everyone participates equally, not just the Discussion<br />
(co-)Chairs. The job of the moderating Chair is to make<br />
EVERYBODY talk and engage. Discussion co-Chairs sit<br />
scattered about the room and participate no more and<br />
no less than anyone else in the room.<br />
If connecting with new partners can be useful, we<br />
encourage you to ENGAGE as vocally and actively as you<br />
might enjoy. This will enable others to get to know you<br />
and you to get to know them.<br />
The Moderating Chair will be addressing questions<br />
DIRECTLY to particular participants, by name or by<br />
gesturing towards them, not just to anyone unspecified<br />

While journalists may sometimes take notes during<br />
discussions, they only ever do so after signing a “Chatham<br />
House” confidentiality agreement under which they commit<br />
not to quote for attribution to a person or to a company,<br />

in the room at-large, as that is usually greeted with<br />
pregnant silence. Even so, you are encouraged to<br />
comment, question, dissent or otherwise interject.<br />
As no one will prompt you, please join the discussion<br />
room of your choice in time. Rooms only fill in AFTER a<br />
discussion starts and you need not be alarmed by a near<br />
empty room. It will quickly get crowded.<br />
Some participants speak so softly as to be unheard by<br />
most. SPEAK UP and remind others to do so if you can’t<br />
hear them.<br />
AVOID monopolizing conversation, self-promotion or<br />
commercial pitches, as the Moderating Chair has been<br />
urged to cut them off.<br />
The GRI format was designed to enable senior industry<br />
leaders to share, learn and make friends in as natural,<br />
spontaneous and collegial a setting as possible.<br />
We welcome your suggestions as to how we can do better.<br />
except with specific consent from the respective parties.<br />
In addition, students or other reporters summarize most<br />
of the discussions and take notes that are subsequently<br />
distributed to all participants.
