What's an outstanding question?
A question that matters is an introspective or interactive tool designed to enrich reflection or conversations that count!
With Appreciative Inquiry:
"Systems move in the direction of the questions we ask" David Cooperrider
- Surprising question: the person had not thought of it
- Touching question: the person reminisces about memories, successes, strengths
- Question that promotes both introspection and discussion with others, creates meaningful conversations
- Question that generates momentum and the perspective of overcoming a situation (the problem)
- Question that directs towards a desirable future
With the Narrative Approach:
« Every question we ask generates a possible version of a life » David Epston
Question sharpening workshop, to learn how to construct powerful questions with Dina Scherrer: http://www.dinascherrer.com/
- Question that takes care of the person: it honors life experiences, values, skills
- Question that makes the person dignified: it brings the person to a place where they find energy and dignity
- Question that brings the person back to life, to the shore, to a safe place
- Question that takes the person here and elsewhere, to a place where it is possible to have the answer
The themes

You can choose to discover the questions :
- By theme
- Randomly

And you can also invent your own rules, online or with the printed cards ☺
