The 12th Annual DEUTSCHE GRI 2016 D eutsche und inter nationale Entscheider im deutschen I mmobilienmar kt Connec ting G er man & Global R eal Estate Leaders FRANKFURT • 9 - 10 MAY T H E W E S T I N G R A N D 1 TIPPS TIPS HIER EINIGE TIPPS DIE HELFEN, DAS MEISTE AUS GRI TREFFEN ZU MACHEN… HERE ARE A FEW TIPS THAT MAY BE HELPFUL IN GETTING THE MOST OUT OF THE GRI... GRI Diskussionen sind keine Panels! Sie sind vergleichbar einem Gespräch unter Freunden im eigenen Wohnzimmer. GRI discussions are not panels. They are like after-dinner conversations in one’s own living room with good friends, under the guidance of a moderating Chair. Jeder kann an der Diskussion teilnehmen, egal ob Co-Chairs oder als Teilnehmer. Chair und Co-Chairs sitzen über den Raum verteilt, stoßen die Diskussion an und beziehen alle Teilnehmer mit ein. Geben Sie anderen die Gelegenheit Sie kennenzulernen. Bringen Sie sich aktiv ein, d.h. so aktiv wie Sie können und möchten. Auf diese Weise ermöglichen Sie es sich und anderen den richtigen Kontakt zu knüpfen. Die Chairs addressieren Fragen gezielt an einzelne Teilnehmer um das Gespräch anzuregen.. Unabhängig davon können Sie kommentieren, hinterfragen und sich einzumischen, wann immer Ihnen dies wichtig ist. Finden Sie sich rechtzeitig in der Diskussionsrunde Ihrer Wahl ein. Die Runden starten prompt, egal wie viele Teilnehmer dann im Raum sind und füllen sich zumeist zügig nach Beginn auf. Sprechen Sie laut und deutlich, damit alle Sie hören können. Erinnern Sie gegebenenfalls andere, falls diese schwer zu verstehen sind. Versuchen Sie, die Diskussion nicht zu vereinnahmen und Ihre Beitrage pointiert zu halten. Chairs sind dazu angehalten, längere Beitrage zu unterbinden. Das GRI Format ist geschaffen worden, damit Sie sich aktiv austauschen und einbringen können, in entspannter und spontaner Atmosphäre. Wir freuen uns uber jeden Ihrer Hinweise, wie wir dies noch besser fördern können. 2 Everyone participates equally, not just the Discussion Chair & Co-Chairs. The job of the moderating Chair is to make everybody talk and engage. Discussion Co-Chairs sit scattered about the room and participate no more and no less than anyone else in the room. If connecting with new partners is useful, we encourage you to ENGAGE as vocally and actively as you might enjoy. This will enable others to get to know you and vice versa. The Moderating Chair will address questions directly to participants by name or by gesturing towards them, not just to anyone in the room at large, as that is usually greeted with pregnant silence. Even so, you are encouraged to comment, question, dissent or otherwise interject. As no one will prompt you, please join the discussion room of your choice in good time. Rooms tend to fill up after a discussion starts and you need not be concerned by a near empty room. This will quickly change. Some participants speak so softly as to be unheard by most. Speak up and remind others to do so if you can’t hear them. Avoid monopolizing conversation, self-promotion or commercial pitches, as the Moderating Chair has been urged to cut them off. The GRI format was designed to enable senior industry leaders to share, learn and make friends in as natural, spontaneous and collegial a setting as possible. We welcome your suggestions as to how we can do better. MEDIENPRÄSENZ MEDIA PRESENCE Anwesende Journalisten haben die “Chatham House Rules” hinsichtlich der Vertraulichkeit von Informationen unterzeichnet. Darunter ist zu verstehen, das jedwedes Zitieren nur mit ausdrücklicher Zustimmung der zitierten Person erfolgen darf. Darüberhinaus werden gegebenenfalls Zusammenfassungen der Diskussionen angefertigt und unter den Teilnehmern verteilt. While journalists may sometimes take notes during discussions, they only ever do so after signing a “Chatham House” confidentiality agreement under which they commit not to quote for attribution to a person or to a company, except with specific consent from the respective parties. In addition, students or other reporters may summarize most of the discussions and take notes that are subsequently distributed to all participants. WILLKOMMEN WELCOME Geballte Entscheidungskompetenz in vertrauter Atmosphäre Seniority of a boardroom, intimacy of your living room Zuwanderung und Brexit Debatte, setzt Deutschland Germany is going through an interesting time with im einen Interessanten Zeitraum.
