The Hot Seat session proved to be an effective method for developing communication, confidence, and problem-solving skills among participants. With minor adjustments, it can serve as an impactful tool for both personal and team development in future sessions.

These questions were designed to explore the participant’s perspective, knowledge, and problem-solving abilities.
