In my experience there tend to be several quiet members of a group, who don’t speak much in the group setting but will talk in one-on-one settings. It could be a fun exercise to break up into pairs, and have each pair chat individually for a period of time, before rejoining the group conversation.
This would be useful just to build stronger connections between individual members of the group, but it is especially useful if you’re trying to have a focused discussion. Usually a few voices end up dominating, and if that occurs from the very beginning only a few ideas get discussed.
