Round: Group Discussion
Experience: Ppl divided in groups. Some in favour other in against. Iphone users called it a excellence and vice versa. I made some good points and then sat back and allowed them discuss. Then i stepped in and lead the discussion. Others also made good points so i consider led their points but also treated it small to my logic. Sometime it became fish market then i retreted. At the end it concluded well in my favour.
Tips: You dont have to talk endlessly. Make ur point and fall back. Think and talk logic. Wait for your turn. As someone voice drops down, you increase your voice and take it from their. Keep voice modulation. Dont raise your hand. Appreciate others. Try to be a leader. Stay calm but speak.
