Which are the burning questions that you are participating with?

Sander: Well, I’m sorry to say, but I can’t think of “burning”questions right now, maybe they will come later. It’s more that I liked the brochure and the fact that tools as Open Space, World Café and AI are discussed and trained.

Margaret:
- How can I change the meetings culture of my organisation from the traditional model of "Agenda - battle - minutes" to one where we really
communicate and inspire each other?
- How can we approach our work for the benefit of the whole organisation
instead of (or better: as well as) our own corners?
-How can we communicate better within our organisation and with other
organisations?

Helen:
How can I harness collective intelligence in an orange/green environment with blue procedures?

Erik:
Who and how do you invite people into the conversation, when you need people of all colors (in terms of Spiral)?

Particularly, how do you motivate individuals at the periphery of the conversation to join in, stay and contribute, when their stake in the conversation is very indirect? In other words, how do you find the balance between diversity and interest, when you know that you need diversity to co-create really radical innovations?

If you have to slow down to be able to accelerate, when do you take-off?

How do you find the courage, the energy to convene?

Frauke:
* What can I learn from consultants who use AoH on a professional level? Is that an area where I see my professional future?
* How do I deal with strong emotional responses from participants using AoH (i.e. tears, frustration that expectations have not been met since usual training methods were expected)?
* How can we build a (virtual) network of AoH practitioners? 

Jos:
In my experience the conversations I organize go rather well and are lively. The question I have is how to create a lively conversation that is really meaningful as a collective at the end of the meeting when the final thoughts are pulled together, such that people really feel committed to follow-up. I suspect that the answer to this question depends also on how involved and committed the participants are upfront and whether they feel enough that there is enough safety. But nevertheless, how to create energy and inspiration at the end so people finish with excitement and are eager to take their responsibility. How to create the proper context so meaningful conversations lead really to co-creation?

Hilde:
* How to cope with the logic of large organisational systems as an individual?
* How to balance between dependence and self responsibility?  I once read this quote: 'A system is the struggle of an individual to fit in a larger context'. So what is this larger context then? What's the pattern underneath? Can I explore it with others? What attitudes, instruments, methods 'll help? What kind of experiences?

Monique:
What is the best way to open up people's mind and mouths with regards to hosting style, tone of voice etc.

Julian:
Where's the tipping point in our understanding of complexity in human systems?
How will we know that the conditioned self has become explicit, and that it can be worken on and brought into balance?

Philipp:
* well, quite simple ones - first just being curious to find out what are the other persons being interested in the issue
* getting new ideas and methods I can use for my professional life and other projects I'm involved
* and just getting in touch with new ideas

Dettie:
* How to inspire, motivate myself and others to grow in depth by having meaningful conversations?
* How to feel at ease as their hostess?
* How to guide/talk people to their OWN highest potential? Is is possible to HOST people to their highest potential?

Hannelore:
* What can be my role in creating spaces for dialogue?
* Do I look and search for the right space and use it?

What does it mean to ‘host artfully’ and what skills and understanding will I leave with that will help to make my role within the WWF project and my other projects at The Environment Council more effective?
Who are the other people attending and what is their experience/what can I learn from them?

Nicole:
How to apply AOH in my working and social life?
How to stimulate the sense of responsibility? Excluding the concept of competition.

Federike:
I know how to create my life, it is amazing how things have unfolded for me; I got everything I wished for so far. My intentions are strong and crystallysing easily. And now the question is: how can I do that with other persons? How can I co-create with my boy-friend, with my working partners, with an unknown group of people, and with the whole society?

Marie-Bernadette:
-    What can I do to make conversations meaningful in professional circumstances as well as in personal circumstances?
-    What can I do to motivate individuals to take part of a conversation, especially when their contributions seems not meaningful at first sight? 

George:
How can AoH, Open Space, World Cafe, Appreciate Inquiry, and other social technologies scale up and be comnined with Theory U, also known as "presencing," so that they can be more effective in addressing the world problematique (or crisis of crises)?

* Who am I when I live in harmony with life itself ?
