campfire methodology

The campfire methodology is a collaborative facilitation technique designed to promote open, honest, and creative discussions within a group. It involves gathering participants in a circle around a metaphorical or literal “campfire,” where each person shares ideas, insights, or stories in a respectful and attentive environment. This approach encourages equal participation, active listening, and the organic flow of ideas, fostering trust and collective problem-solving. Often used in workshops or team settings, it creates a relaxed atmosphere that helps overcome hierarchical barriers, making it easier for diverse voices to contribute and innovate.
