How to host a high quality book club?

<> to hold a high-quality reading club, you first need a high-quality theme, which is the most important tone of a reading club, and it is also an important indicator to attract high-end readers. Moreover, if the theme is set well, everyone's participation will be higher, and it will be easier to attract the attention of participating readers. The theme of profound meaning and value is an important beginning of a high-quality reading club, and a good start is half the success, and this sentence is not false at all.

The second is the quality of the presenter. A knowledgeable, elegant and entertaining presenter is the key to a successful book club, not only dominating the audience, but also engrossing all readers in the most important energy. The lecturer's explanation and extension of the theme is the guarantee of the high quality of the reading club, and the reading club is not like other commercial activities, it has one of the most basic requirements is to establish a resonance from the spirit with the reader, and the speaker is an important guide for whether this resonance can be realized, so the most important part of the success of a good reading club is the speaker, his aura, speech style, knowledge structure and personal influence (charm) is the key to the key.

Again, it is the quality control of the participating readers. The so-called high quality is not suitable for any reader, and this does not mean discriminating against the general reader, but the readership group corresponding to the topic is better. This can not only make the communication link more effective and more colorful, but also put forward more rational and deeper questions related to the theme, and analyze these issues, the reading club is not a simple briefing or press conference, in the precise sense it is an exchange meeting guided by the spiritual teacher, the best way to express it is to let a hundred flowers bloom, and the best result is to bring more thinking and suggestions to everyone.

Whether the participating readers can accept and digest the content of the lecture and form their own views and understandings, and then sort out these views and discuss them with everyone, this requires some ability and knowledge. Therefore, engaging the right readers is also an important part related to quality.

The last is the choice of venue, if the first three conditions are all met, and you want to make the whole study more perfect, then spend your mind on the choice of venue. A beautiful, well-appointed venue will make people feel refreshed and comfortable from the moment they enter the venue. Of course, not all venues with beautiful environments are suitable for holding reading clubs, and the venue requirements of reading clubs should not only fit the theme, but also pay attention to openness, (openness is the most basic spiritual requirement of the reader's heart), and be full of strong bookish and cultural atmosphere, such a venue is the best.

What makes a book club different from other types of conferences is that it is a discussion of a relatively high-quality group of people about a very specific book or periodical.

I don't think that the book club needs a very connotative person to preside over it, it only needs to be a connotative person. Don't worry about the whole process of a book club going smoothly, because I believe that those who have participated in it can learn, after all, they are all people who like to learn. There are many factors that go into whether or not it is of high quality:

Themes, characters, environments, etc. The theme is the thread that attracts everyone to this book club, and it must be good. The characters need the organizer to find like-minded friends, let them know the existence of this reading club, can not force people to come, here to highlight is that I personally think that the scale of the reading club should not be too large, because the number of people is mixed, the quality is invisibly reduced, the scene is also difficult to control, the main theme of the reading club will be likely to deviate.

Environmental factors are also very important, because everyone in the book club is a reader, and each of them has their favorite reading occasions, most of them like quiet study rooms, libraries, and even the brightness of the lights needs to be considered.

I think one of the most important things about the book club is communication. The book club prefers the discussion meeting, even if it seems small and not atmospheric enough, but what does it matter? Aren't we here to show others?

That kind of one-person book club is more like a one-person lecture, which cannot be regarded as a book club, but will make people feel that it is a process of being forcibly shared by you. The discussion will focus on discussion, and it will be difficult to communicate if there are more people, so it is best to control the number of people to less than 20 people (this is my personal opinion of a high-quality reading club, don't spray if you don't like it, I believe no one will spray). Wouldn't it be nice to make sure that everyone has the opportunity to express their ideas at a book club, and that everyone has something to say about this book or this person, and if they can say it to like-minded friends?

It's like a tree hole, a real-life version of a tree hole.

Although I have not participated in the sharing activities of the reading club of the Sixiang Reading Club, but because the instructor of our association is also the teacher of the Reading Club, I will often hear the teacher talk about the activities of the reading club.

I think that to run a good reading club, we must first have a good environment! For example, we usually choose a special room upstairs in the library, there are no stools or tables in it, everyone sits on the floor and listens to the sharing together, if it is outside the school, it is also recommended to choose a quiet place, find a café with few people, if the environment is too noisy, it will really affect the overall quality, and it is useless to do well in other aspects.

The second point is that the person who shares is very important, this person must be the kind of person who can hold up the scene, in addition to having a unique insight into the books they share and preparing for the work, they must also take into account the audience, when to interact, when to listen to everyone's opinions, when to communicate together, these are very important, if the person sharing can not hold the scene, it will make the people below feel bored and bored, so that it will be difficult for this reading club to continue with quality.

Thirdly, the people who participate are important. I think this is the most important thing, because only if everyone has their own ideas and then let different ideas collide with sparks and generate new resonances, this reading club will be meaningful and high-quality, otherwise, choose some people who don't have their own ideas and can't ask their own questions, and when it comes to the exchange link, it's really wide-eyed, how embarrassing and embarrassing it is.

Practice 365 Day 9.

In order to successfully hold a reading club, teacher Wang Yijing said that the first thing to ask yourself is a question, why do you want to hold a reading club? In other words, what is the motivation for holding a book club?

First of all, I like the system of Vajra wisdom, I like to soak in the culture of truth, goodness and beauty here, and I also want to understand the deep meaning behind the great Vajra wisdom. The second is to provide such a reading environment for friends around them, interact and communicate together. The third is to train yourself to be able to practice and spread the wisdom of King Kong like Mr. Wang.

A good motive, it can account for 90% of our success in planting a good seed, if our motivation is pure, then we have planted an immeasurable good seed, the slogan of King Kong Business School is to change the world. I hope to do my best to plant a good seed for myself in advance.

With a clear motivation, how to hold and continue to hold a reading club, how to do a good job in planning, organizing, speaking, and operating, Mr. Wang has sorted out a set of professional processes that match the King Kong system with many years of experience in holding reading clubs, and shares them with you.

1. Before the start of the reading club, everyone should have a quiet time: let everyone take back their troubled thoughts, in order to better devote themselves to the next study. It's going to be a great start.

5. Summary: The reader makes a summary, mainly a summary of the day's learning, which can be a perception.

6. Assign homework: Maintain the motivation to continue learning.

8. Training assistants: can cooperate with the organizer in terms of recording, hosting, sharing, and conference organization.

9. Accumulation of the leader's speech: You can set a sharing theme in advance, which will become the goal learning for your in-depth thinking and subsequent practice.

That's all for my review, and I hope that in the future, I can fulfill my wish to hold a book club.

The topic of this issue is the reading club, I see that all the friends in the group have expressed their views from different angles, and I would like to say a few points from the perspective of simple psychology, especially from the motivation and needs of different groups of people to participate in the reading club.

First of all, if they are veterans with certain skills and experience, what is the purpose of their participation in the book club?

One is the spiritual need, sharing will bring a sense of fulfillment, and being worshiped when sharing will bring a sense of pride, these two pleasures cannot be bought with money.

The second is social needs, participating in reading clubs can broaden the circle and network, and the soft value of this is incalculable.

So what do these people like the most?

One is the audience's late and indifferent attitude when sharing, and the second is that the circle of the book club is not attractive enough to make people want to make new friends.

If we look at these two aspects, that is, first, to ensure the order and etiquette of the late public, and second, to attract more high-quality book lovers, so as to sympathize with each other.

Secondly, if it is an ordinary book friend, I believe that their social needs are the same as those of senior book friends, and their spiritual needs are biased towards enriching business time and expanding knowledge. Then it should be a top priority for them to ensure the quality of the shares.

To sum up, different book lovers have spiritual needs and social needs, and the most important thing for the reading club is to ensure two qualities, the quality of sharing, and the quality of the audience.

The internal organizers of the reading club can act separately, while actively inviting book friends to share, and confirm the sharing content, sharing form, and sharing rhythm to the sharers, while improving the process and schedule of the reading club, making a list of pending matters, ensuring that the audience arrives in advance, the mobile phone is silent, and the questions are asked in an orderly manner and interact with each other in a friendly manner.

I suggest that the managers of the reading club can list the responsibilities of each role, and invite all the book friends of the reading club to take turns, for example, there are five roles, sharer, moderator, commentator, logistics a, logistics b, this form is similar to the head horse speech club, he is the only ones to divide the process of each speech meeting into 10 roles, everyone takes turns to play different roles, which can not only improve speech skills, but also improve organizational skills, I think the book club can learn from this way, Otherwise, if it is always managed by a few people, those administrators must not be tired to death, and it will affect the enthusiasm in the long run.

Finally, this article simply divides book friends into senior and ordinary, which is inevitably a bit single, and the thinking angle is relatively one-sided. Written like a work summary, sorry.

Now there are more and more reading clubs.

Let's summarize the current model of the book club:

Hedong Reading Club: The longest reading club held in Qingdao has been held for nearly 8 years--- The founder, Rick Yan, is an educator! And the mode of the power reading club is:

Activity site: There is a host of the reading club on behalf of the organizer to introduce the purpose, purpose and significance of the reading club! Then I would like to introduce myself to each of you in 30s!

Finally, after Gao Shao finished speaking, the speaker began to share his personal reading of the book (this stems from the fact that some authors have written books and shared them on the spot!). The first half was mainly based on the teacher's sharing.

The second half is mainly based on the interaction between the keynote speaker and the audience! The moderator needs to do some guidance in this link! You can prepare some excerpts from the book (live reading) or comments on the book on the Internet in advance, and ask the audience's cognition and opinions!

This link is mainly to complete the collision and exchange of ideas! Sometimes you can ask the audience about the most impressive point of this book, and share it!

This mode of sharing guests is crucial! You can explain the essence of the book thoroughly! Under the guidance of a moderator, you can ensure that everyone actively expresses their views and exchanges of ideas on the spot!

Although I have not participated in the sharing activities of the reading club of the Sixiang Reading Club, but because the instructor of our association is also the teacher of the Reading Club, I will often hear the teacher talk about the activities of the reading club.

I think that to run a good reading club, we must first have a good environment! For example, we usually choose a special room upstairs in the library, there are no stools or tables in it, everyone sits on the floor and listens to the sharing together, if it is outside the school, it is also recommended to choose a quiet place, find a café with few people, if the environment is too noisy, it will really affect the overall quality, and it is useless to do well in other aspects.

The second point is that the person who shares is very important, this person must be the kind of person who can hold up the scene, in addition to having a unique insight into the books they share and preparing for the work, they must also take into account the audience, when to interact, when to listen to everyone's opinions, when to communicate together, these are very important, if the person sharing can not hold the scene, it will make the people below feel bored and bored, so that it will be difficult for this reading club to continue with quality.

Thirdly, the people who participate are important. I think this is the most important thing, because only if everyone has their own ideas and then let different ideas collide with sparks and generate new resonances, this reading club will be meaningful and high-quality, otherwise, choose some people who don't have their own ideas and can't ask their own questions, and when it comes to the exchange link, it's really wide-eyed, how embarrassing and embarrassing it is.
