Discover the power of a well-crafted question. This interactive workshop explores inquiry as both a communication skill and a relational practice—one that opens dialogue, deepens understanding, and transforms conflict.
Through hands-on exercises and reflection, participants will learn to design questions that spark curiosity and connection rather than defensiveness or debate.
Drawing from restorative justice, Clean Language, and facilitative dialogue methods, this training offers practical tools for anyone who leads, teaches, mediates, or simply wants to listen more skillfully.
Participants will learn to:
- Recognize the difference between leading, loaded, and generative questions.
- Cultivate curiosity and presence when navigating tension.
- Apply frameworks for inquiry that foster understanding and accountability.
- Practice using questions to guide reflection, decision-making, and repair.
