 One of the best ways to manage a team's energy in a workshop is to tell them right at the beginning of the workshop that they're going to feel tired in the workshop and that that's okay. One of the things that makes people feel really tired and low on energy in a workshop is that they think they need to be switched on the entire time and if they get tired they're ruining the whole thing. But in the beginning of every workshop I tell a team you're gonna feel tired after lunch you're gonna have a slump and in the workshop I'm saying are you feeling that slump now you're feeling the low that's okay that's normal that's how it feels to be in a workshop and just telling them this will counter intuitively keep their energy levels up a lot higher than if you don't mention anything and they think that you think that they should be high energy. No tell them at the very start of the workshop that it's completely normal if the energy drops and that you've planned and built the workshop based on the fact that their energy will be lower later in the day. That's it.
