Hi Coert: Yes. I ignored the initial wave of problem talk and made a positive encouraging comment whenever I heard solution-focused thinking. I asked the participants to begin by sharing how they would know that the two-day meeting would be a success for them by its conclusion. On one major issue I asked them to scale their level of satisfaction (we got zeros and ones) and compare that scale with one to be taken in a month's time after some work had been done. Very interesting to watch long-standing hositilties fade away as the group started to seek solutions to (so called) systemic issues. Tiring but very rewarding two days of coaching.
