Description: This workshop offers a core curriculum for leaders (from the front-line to the executive) – in asking questions that transform workplace dynamics, relationships and results.
Where a leader puts their attention matters. When a leader asks powerful questions, it acts as a stimulant to hope, creativity, and do-able solutions to complex challenges.
This workshop will introduce leaders to a versatile, reliable toolkit for leading any kind of meeting where change is desired. This toolkit can be used one-on-one; team meetings; in collaborations with external partners; and in any situation where there is unsatisfactory circumstances or progress.
"The questions a leader asks can transform workplace relationships and results by supporting a shift towards possibilities, creativity, and commitment. The versatile and flexible toolkit of questions shared in this workshop will contribute powerfully to your skilled facilitation of important work conversations." - Marion Langford.

- To leave with a scripted set of questions for a meeting of any size, any purpose, of the learners choice.
