Workshop overview
Did you know that between the ages of 3-5, children may ask as many as 75 questions per hour? But by age 11, that number drops off to nearly 0. In a culture that rewards us for having all the right answers, asking questions has become a lost art.
In this workshop, learners are taught to rediscover their own curiosity and practice using this skill to uncover new information. Participants start with a warm that helps them uncover the immediate benefits of asking better questions, review additional personal and professional advantages to improving questioning skills, and then learn a specific tool to build this skill: Ask Killer Questions. Using this tool, participants practice applying four different principles to level up their questioning skills in a collaborative question-storming session. Participants leave with dozens of killer questions designed to boost their team's success.
