Or do you learn better when you get a chance to process the content every 15 minutes by thinking about it quietly or talking with a peer?

I’ve just returned from an inspiring week in Kiev, Ukraine where I got to facilitate a training for women’s organizations organized by Wake , an amazing start up founded by two respected colleagues Trish Tierney and Heather Ramsey.
