Elevate your engagement on every level by asking the right questions! Learn how to cut through the complexity, guide participants to think deeply and ensure diverse people can contribute meaningfully.
Quality questions equal quality outcomes. But how do I craft quality questions we hear you ask?!
Join us on Thursday May 23 at our FREE Lunch and Learn engagement webinar when we’ll share practical tips on crafting questions that have meaning and substance and genuinely address real dilemmas. Our team will share case studies and examples from our projects across various sectors, such as local government, utilities, and healthcare.
Elevate your engagement on every level by asking the right questions
Often overlooked, this powerful step in engagement planning applies to any process, but is even more essential when engaging around long term strategies, visions or multiple plans.
When we plan for engagement, it helps to develop a really clear question (remit) that informs participants about the core dilemma they are helping to solve. There are strategic questions that sit under this that help elicit outputs that respond to that remit.
The questions you ask matter. Well designed strategic questions will:
increase participation rates
guide participants to think deeply and contribute meaningfully
cut through the complexity and engage people in technical issues without confusing them
help lift people above day-to-day personal issues, look to the future and consider broader perspectives
elicit outputs that genuinely help decision makers tackle what’s hard
result in higher quality outcomes and more informed decisions
create efficiencies and a higher ROI

IS THIS SESSION FOR ME?
This session is ideal for anyone planning for engagement, but particularly those who are considering how to engage or planning to engage around strategic plans, visions, long term planning documents and/ or looking to engage their community or customers in the development of multiple strategic documents.
For example, the local government sector, where councils are seeking to build on previous engagement and asking people to revisit visions and have input into a set of plans every planning cycle.
