Facilitation: The Secret of the Starting Question-Michael Wilkinson

How many times have you asked a question and received complete silence in response? Master Facilitator Michael Wilkinson shows you the secret to the starting question. Much like when starting a fire when all the right materials, asking questions in this way almost always will result in a bonfire of responses.

He is a natural! this is not a talk, it is great facilitation in action.

Great talk. It would have been nice if we could have seen the questions. That said, here's what I thought I heard: Q1: What are the inputs to the scheduling process? (non visually stimulating question) Q2: If you are about to develop a class schedule, what kind of information would you have need to have nearby? (visually stimulating question that we're trying to create)

What a great technique. Simple, but not easy.

This is great learning

[@playmeo-group-games]

Interesting remarks, but would be even more powerful if the video could view the screen. Especially important because it is referred to throughout.

Good way to break down the art of asking an answerable question. I shared it in my blog post. themeetinghero.com/help-meeting-participants-answer-questions/

Would be more clearer if we could see the questions on the screen.
