Different perspectives.
A shared conversation.
Make it clear that people can contribute
in more than one way.
Offer a choice of formats so the group can speak, write, sketch or reflect.
Ask how someone else sees the same situation. A different perspective can become a starting point for the next question.
Make room to explain the reasoning. Listen for meaning before deciding what the group should do next.
Start by naming the question. Then invite people to add what they notice, need or wonder.
Leave space for the other person to finish.
Try: What am I missing?
Then reflect back what you heard.
Hear one perspective without rushing to reply.
Write or sketch the detail that matters.
Offer one thought for the group to consider.
Invite a written response, a sketch or a moment to think. Participation can look different.
Describe what the group sees in more than one way.
Agree on a small action and a time to reflect.
Whose perspective have we not heard?
What assumption could we examine?
What is one useful thing to try next?
Bring one idea into the next conversation. Ask what changed, and what still needs attention.
A new conversation can begin
with one thoughtful invitation.
