Open Question Examples

Here are a couple of Open Questions Bellingham IONS has used at our retreats.
This year:
What is one thing we could do that would allow you to feel more productive,
effective, satisfied and joyful working together as a Team?


Last Year: (I'm paraphrasing this one--can't remember it exactly.) I remember the outcome though after several rounds was a consensual decision to continue building wisdom community locally. We continued our theme of evolving awareness, consciousness and inclusion.
