The Inquiry Institute’s in-person workshops may offer the very best opportunity to understand collaborative question  thinking techniques. If you’ve been introduced to question thinking or if you are looking for new techniques to solve old problems, consider attending an in-person workshop.

Inquiring Mindset™ Advantage:
Tools for Inquiry-Based Transformational Problem-Solving™
(ICF CCE approved)

Registration Fee: $495

“Mindset” refers to one’s characteristic attitudes and ways of approaching people and situations. When we operate from the Inquiring Mindset, we are curious, open-minded, and ask questions intended to discover, learn, resolve, and create. This way we empower the most successful critical, creative, and collaborative thinking; decision making; problem solving; conversation, and results. The practical Inquiring Mindset tools, methods, and practices can make a positive difference in results wherever they are applied.

The methods of Transformational Problem Solving™ help people do this predictably and successfully everywhere they are applied, both professionally and personally. Developing expertise in asking the best questions often yields a high ‘return on investment’; it empowers more successful communication, strategic thinking, decision-making, problem-solving, conflict resolution, and innovation. Great results really do begin with great questions.

Teaching and Thriving in Difficult Times
In a time of escalating pressures and demands, many teachers are wondering, “How can I have a sense of control and even thriving—as a teacher and as a human being?” and “How can I reinforce the feeling of mission and excitement that made me want to be a teacher in the first place?” as well as “How can I stay successfully focused on what I need—as well as what my students need?”

An informal survey conducted by the Inquiry Institute revealed key attributes that teachers who considered themselves as “thriving” said were important or necessary:

A sense of choice and control in their own lives
Successful ways to get their “batteries recharged” and a sense of well-being
Personal tools and skills for keeping a positive perspective while managing the inevitable stresses and pressures of teaching and life
