Formal Conversation

1.  Sharing.  
2.  Debriefing.  This is the history to be

shared since you last saw the interlocutor.
3. Clearing.   Clearing, unlike debriefing, generally focuses on a single event or a couple, not a list of them.  “Is there anything you want to say before we start our session?” “… before we begin our meeting?”
4. Discussion and Debate.  This is the natural expression of opinions and views  when everyone is allowed to equally participate in it
5. Teaching.
