Answer Questions

If your coaching practice invites others to strengthen psychological safety or master the art of inquiry, the good news is that you can create a mutually reinforcing cycle to accelerate both.

In this session, you’ll explore and experience how the Question Burst Method systematically sets the stage for building stronger psychological safety into teams, organizations, and communities. You’ll also discover the effectiveness of sharing challenges with others and asking questions in general.

  1. By sharing challenges with others and then asking fearless questions about those challenges in small groups, we can strengthen a prevailing sense of psychological safety across teams and organizations.
  2. By systematically using the Question Burst method when facing tough challenges, we can make progress on that challenge 85% of the time. And by using the Question Burst method systematically with others, we can build stronger psychological safety.
  3. If we work on either asking better questions or increasing psychological safety, we are bound to see gains on the other. But even better, by working on both goals simultaneously we can get mutual reinforcement that accelerates both to a better future.

If your coaching practice invites others to strengthen psychological safety or master the art of inquiry, the good news is that it’s possible to accelerate both. How can you bolster your ability to ‘ask the better question’ in a digital world? 

In this session, you’ll explore AI-enhanced strategies that organizations are using to change the trajectory and impact of human questions. You’ll also examine the subtle nuances of Question Velocity, Question Variety, and question value.

  1. Question Velocity: How integrating AI tools deeper into our coaching work will fuel higher velocity questioning.
  2. Question Variety: Why when integrating AI tools into our decision making and questioning processes, we need to be prepared to encounter and make sense of the completely unexpected patterns that AI can deliver in response to our queries.
  3. Question Value: How, with or without AI assistance, the most valuable questions for coaches and clients are the most novel and unique ones to be discovered.
