For beginners, I recommend starting small by introducing design-thinking
activities such as brainstorming warm-ups (see https://lucidspark.com/blog/
brainstorming-warm-up-exercises) or the Marshmallow Challenge (see https://
www.marshmallowchallenge.com/instructions/). When working with a new design
team, set norms for listening, brainstorming, sharing, reflecting, and participating.
Remember to take time for team building and fun. Finally, as the facilitator, model
risk-taking, and do not be afraid to jump in!
