"No One Wins In a War"

Group Discussion Preparation

Basic Structure


1. Introductory Structure
Typical introduction to every group discussion should carry the following essential points:
• Greetings to everyone
• Introduce the topic
• Give the general meaning/ definition/ any introductory line related to the topic
• Provide various dimensions of the topic if you can, classifications, types etc. This provides the broad headings under which the topic should be discussed such as pros, cons, advantages, disadvantages etc
• Your opinion (are you in favor or against that topic, you may take one side or both sides)
• Open the house for discussion

2. Body Part
• Start discussion on the points as per direction provided in the introduction
• Initially cover all the important points which you can talk about
• Try to cover each dimension of the topic such as pros and cons
• Try to seek clarification from other members by asking them questions related to what they said, this helps you to be in discussion
• Ask questions from others, this helps to make others silent and listen to your point
• Provide examples to support your view, examples may be from real life of otherwise
• Try to use these sentences: I don’t agree with you, I agree with your view, let me add to what you just said, why do you think this is the case, friends let me provide you one data, friends let me quote the lines of Gandhi ji
• Friends if you allow me then I want to put forth my point
• Friends you will agree with me that ……
• Let me tell u an incident or story….
• Try to enter min 3 times during discussion

3. Conclusion Structure
The conclusion of GD is the conclusion of entire group and it must contain the points provided by each member. Make sure you have jotted down the important points said by members
• On behalf of everyone, I would like to take the initiation to conclude the discussion
• It was quite a healthy/fruitful/ all members exchanged their viewpoint
• We could reach consensus/ though we could not reach any consensus but important points were discussed
• Discuss some quotes/ viewpoints of your mates which you find quite good, try to mention the points which you have jotted down
• Go for a very neutral ending; as a coin has got two sides, similarly one must look towards the positive sides and try to learn from the negative ones.
• Thankyou
