    This situation means maybe they haven’t understanding or not willing to use the rules, so I have to find out the reasons and lead the discussion on the road. I would intervene by asking the group “Do we use the two rules in the discussion?” Then the answers appear, I will ask “May I ask what’s the reason?”

    I would conduct a standard intervention by asking, “How are we doing? How concise are we being with our responses? Are we using all available recourses when asking our questions?” Then, depending on what is shared, I would ask, “How can we make the changes to get the session to move along?

    I don’t think there’s any nerd for additional intervention if that’s what they’re comfortable with. In the case of a standard one, I would ask: “How are we working in a group?”, “Is everyone properly involved?”.

    I would intervene promptly and ask the team to assess two areas:
    First I would ask the question “ How are we doing on our leadership behaviors?” Make participants think about whether they can have practiced the corresponding leadership in the process.
    In addition, I will invite the team to score the overall state of commitment, especially on involvement status. Analyze the strengths and to-be-improved items, and gain commitment for the next phase.

    It depends on the smoothness of the discussion at that time,I would say: “How do you think the effectiveness of the current discussion?”, I wouldn’t intervene if they are comfortable with this.
    If someone points that the current discussion efficiency is not high, I would say:”Are we using all available recourses when asking our questions? How can we make better for this session?”
