French term or phrase: remercier le champ singulier de cette séance
Contexte:

Comment conclure les sessions ?
Il est important de vérifier si certaines personnes ont besoin d’un soutien particulier, par exemple un coup de fil, une réunion exceptionnelle entre les rendez-vous, un coaching. Il est aussi crucial de créer un pont avec la suite, et formaliser ensemble les intentions pour la prochaine séance. Remercier chacun, remercier le champ singulier de cette séance.

Merci,

Barbara

neutral  Daryo: French sounds a little odd?? a little more than little! I sincerely admire your attempt at translating this gobbledygook ... You probably need to get your mind inside some nonsensical theories to grasp the intended meaning (not worth it)

say a few words of thanks specific to the meeting and its context


Explanation:
you should close meeting by thanking all those present and by saying a few words specfic to that particular meeting (e.g. what a pleasure it was to hold the XXth congress/conference in such a place, especially at this time and how efficiently things had been organised, bla, bla, bla).

Hear it all the time in meetings
