Do’s
and Don’ts of Group discussion
1)
Keep eye contact while speaking: Do
not look at the one who evaluates only. Keep eye contact with every team member while
speaking.
2)
Initiate the GD: Initiating the GD is
an advantage. But keep in mind – Initiate the group discussion only when you
understood the GD topic clearly and have some topic knowledge. Speaking without
proper subject knowledge is bad impression.
3)
Allow others to speak: Do not
interrupt anyone in-between while speaking. Even if you don’t agree with
his/her thoughts do not snatch their chance to speak. Instead make some notes
and clear the points when it’s your turn.
4)
Speak clearly: Speak politely and
clearly. Use simple and understandable words while speaking. Don’t be too
aggressive if you are disagreeing with someone. Express your feelings calmly
and politely.
5)
Make sure to bring the discussion on track: If by any means group is distracting from the topic or goal then simply
take initiative to bring the discussion on the track. Make all group members
aware that you all need to come to some conclusion at the end of the discussion.
So stick to the topic.
6)
Positive attitude: Be confident. Do
not try to dominate anyone. Keep positive body language. Show interest in
discussion.
7)
Speak sensibly: Do not speak just to
increase your speaking time. Don’t worry even if you speak less. Your thoughts
should be sensible and relevant instead of irrelevant speech.
8
) Listen carefully to others: Speak
less and listen more! Pay attention while others are speaking. This will make
coherent discussion and you will get involved in the group
positively. You will surely make people agree with you.
9)
No need to go into much details: Some
basic subject analysis is sufficient. No need to mention exact figures while
giving any reference. You have limited time so be precise and convey your thoughts
in short and simple language.
10) Formal dressing: Do not take it casually. No fancy and funny dressing. You
should be comfortable while speaking in group. Positive gesture and body
language will make your work easy.
