Participants are always made to feel as equals, to speak up whatever was in their minds and to disagree whenever they feel so. The group processes always ensure an inner discipline. Any loose statement is immediately challenged by fellow participants. Good friends temporarily look like enemies and those who have known each other before seem to coordinate very well. The interplay of human nature is a treat to observe.
