Four Steps to Leading Sustainable Conversations
To Lead Sustainable Conversations is to move people towards their desired future by means of a four steps process, each with a different focus.
- We begin by creating a safe container and inviting all participants to share their understanding of the issue, topic, challenge or proposed future to be considered.
- Once everyone has shared what things look like from their perspective, the next phase focuses on exploring what is possible given who is involved and what resources are available.
- From there, we move to the action stage where goals are set, tasks are agreed upon, timelines established, and people determine and commit to specific action steps.
- Finally, there is a conversation or series of conversations for reflection and learning.
