Our coaches huddles are designed to cover a specific topic but raise the felt need so hopefully it leads to more of a just in time learning. For some the need may not be urgent so it would be just in case learning for them. I would suggest that some huddles be lead using a Just in Time model by asking the leaders, “What is your greatest challenge right now as a small group leader?” Allow them to build a list of 5-6 issues, then ask them to vote on the top issue. Then proceed by asking them a series of questions designed to help them learn from each other and from you the coach. It is non-planned but very effective approach…the learners become the teachers in this particular approach as they share their experiences and learn from each other.

To facilitate what you are saying here it would seem that a "call me if you need me" policy coupled with a library of resources would work best. Are you suggesting that you still have the normal huddles but allow time for this "free-form" interaction?

Are you suggesting that you still have the normal huddles but allow time for this “free-form” interaction?
