Pre-Meeting Group Caucuses  Identify  Interests you want to defend / advance – things you really care about  Persuasive arguments explaining why the things that you care about are in the interest of the whole community  Factual arguments supporting your position  Proposed “quid pro quo” exchanges / compromises  Strategies for dealing with irreconcilable differences (constructive, non-violent confrontations)
