[OC] An Agile Practitioner's guide to generating buy-in at your table - Tactician Series Part 2 (youtu.be)

Here's part 2 of my tactician series, now about generating buy-in. I use these techniques for work. There were times when I caught myself treating my work colleagues better than my friends with whom I play d&d, especially when my tactician tendencies bubbled up. It seems the things I do on the job translate well to my gaming tables, and I hope they can serve you too.

... Generating buy-in? I'm sorry but what?

"It seems the things I do on the job translate well to my gaming tables..."

What is this, /linkedinlunatics?

If you're trying to push free advertising on a fedi board then please, leave that at the door. I play D&D to get away from my job, not to optimize engagements and maximise profits.

I merely want to share techniques that are likely to be helpful if you want to foster good relationships with your table while also being able to live your best tactician life. It just so happens that these things I'm sharing, I learned from work.

If you're in a well running D&D group and have no need for any of these, that's wonderful. I'm glad for you. But for the rest of the people who may be having some trouble, what's wrong with considering other ideas, even if they come from the professional world? I would reiterate, if you find yourself treating/having a worse relationship with the friends you play with worse than your colleagues at work, to me it makes sense to ask why and how to make it better.

But thanks for sharing your thoughts anyway.
