You need $5,000 in your budget
for program for next fiscal year.
Your only hurdle is that you must
convince executive to approve the
line item. You have 5 minutes to
convince them.
Reflection: What was the
experience like doing this role
play using social styles?
Social Style Scenario
1. Find a partner and
decide who is the
executive director
and who team leader
2. Initiate the
conversation in your
own style
3. Figure out the
executive director’s
style and flex
4. Executive Directors:
Don’t be agreeable
until they start
reaching you with
your style.
Social Style Reflection
Now that you know your social style and have some
options for “flexing,” what might you do in this
situation now?
What would you like other people who may be a
different social style about how to best work with
you?

What is good listening?
Reflective Listening Exercise
Listening
• Pair up with another person.
• Person A will talk for 2 minutes
straight about something he/she
finds exciting or challenging.
• Person B will listen for the full 2
minutes without interruption. No
talking, no commenting, no
questions. Just listen in silence. You
can use non-verbal communication
limitedly. Mostly be present and
listen.
• Switch roles.
Debrief
• How was it for each of you?
• What was your experience?
• What was hard?
• What came naturally?
The Process of Reflective Listening
Full Attention
LoopingDipping
The Process of Reflective Listening
Listening Role Play
We will do two role plays that illustrate good and
bad listening techniques
Role Play 1
Role Play 2
What did you notice?
What was different between the two role plays?
Basic Reflective Listening Techniques to Master
Paraphrase: Repeating back in your own words what someone has said, often using
phrasing such as “Let me see if I’m understanding you.” This builds trust and
establishes your objectivity. You end your paraphrase with “Did I get it?”
Draw Out: After you listen and paraphrase, you ask open-ended or empowering
questions to draw people out. “Tell me more …” A simple hmm…. often works
Intentional Silence: Leaving space for quiet, an essential reflective listening skill. It is
basically a pause. It helps people process complex thoughts.
Acknowledge Feelings: People communicate their feelings, sometimes not
directly. This is a three-step process: observe body language, pose a question that
names the feelings, and paraphrase their responses.
Meta Listen: Listen for what the other person cares about, the value being created
in the conversation, for what you appreciate about the person, or for what is not
being said.
Practice
• Pair up with different person.
• Person A will talk for 2 minutes
straight about something he/she
finds exciting or challenging.
• Person B will practice paraphrase,
drawing out, intentional silence,
acknowledge feelings, and meta
listening
• Switch roles.
Debrief
• What was it like to use reflective listening when having a
conversation with a work colleague?
The Power of Empowering Questions
Empowering questions help a
person reflect, deepen
learning, imagine the
possibilities, create clarity,
challenge assumptions, think
differently about a problem or
take ownership
No blame, bias, leading
questions or close-ended
questions
It causes silence
Examples of Empowering Questions
• What’s most important?
• Which values are you honoring?
• What makes this challenging?
• How might others view this situation?
• What impact is this having?
• What did you learn from this?
• What would like to see happen?
• What would success look like?
• What would you try, if you knew you couldn’t
fail?
• Who are your allies in this?
• What might get in the way?
• What would you like to change?
Examples of Disempowering Questions
Blame
Why are you behind schedule?
What’s the problem with this
project?
Who isn’t keeping up?
Don’t you know any better
than that?
Leading Questions
You wanted to do it by yourself,
didn’t you?
Don’t you agree that John is
the problem here?
Everyone else on the team
thinks John is the problem.
What about you?
Closed Questions
Is this a good time to talk?
What time is the meeting?
How many people are coming?
Who else will be there?
When will the report be ready?
Group Coaching on Empowering Questions
• Volunteer to share a challenge or problem
they are working on two minutes
• Participants practice asking empowering
questions
Coaching Exercise: Asking Powerful Questions
• Pair up with another person.
• Person A will talk for 2 minutes about something
he/she finds exciting or challenging.
• Person B will listen and practice asking
empowering questions.
• Switch roles.
• Be genuinely curious
• Don’t make assumptions
• Ask open-ended questions
• “What” and “How” are great. “When”, “Who”, and
“Where” can be good too. Try to avoid “Why”
• Make sure they are not leading questions
• Ask one at a time
• Keep it simple. Even dumb.
• Be comfortable with silence
Tips
Putting It All Together: Peer Coaching
• Listening with full attention and not talking
• Using techniques: paraphrase, draw out, intentional
silence, acknowledge feelings, and meta
• Asking empowering questions
Exercise
• Work in Triads
• Roles
• Person A: Talks about Problem/Challenge for 3
minutes
• Person B: Coaches for 3 minutes
• Person C: Witness – Shares observations
Coaching Exercise: Full Group Debrief
• What was the experience like doing the
exercise?
• How might these skills be useful in your
work with other staff or members?
What mindsets and
skillsets does a
good peer coach
and facilitator have?
“Practice isn’t the thing you do
once you’re good. It’s the thing
you do that makes you good.”
Malcolm Gladwell

style and working with others?
• What will you commit to practicing in the coming months?

  • 30. Basic Reflective Listening Techniques to Master Paraphrase: Repeating back in your own words what someone has said, often using phrasing such as “Let me see if I’m understanding you.” This builds trust and establishes your objectivity. You end your paraphrase with “Did I get it?” Draw Out: After you listen and paraphrase, you ask open-ended or empowering questions to draw people out. “Tell me more …” A simple hmm…. often works Intentional Silence: Leaving space for quiet, an essential reflective listening skill. It is basically a pause. It helps people process complex thoughts. Acknowledge Feelings: People communicate their feelings, sometimes not directly. This is a three-step process: observe body language, pose a question that names the feelings, and paraphrase their responses. Meta Listen: Listen for what the other person cares about, the value being created in the conversation, for what you appreciate about the person, or for what is not being said.

  • 35. Examples of Disempowering Questions Blame Why are you behind schedule? What’s the problem with this project? Who isn’t keeping up? Don’t you know any better than that? Leading Questions You wanted to do it by yourself, didn’t you? Don’t you agree that John is the problem here? Everyone else on the team thinks John is the problem. What about you?
