You spent most of this week’s class inside the Appreciation Dialogue in triads, rotating through the roles of Sender, Receiver, and Guide. On paper the roles look simple. In practice, each one asks something specific of you, and most people find that at least one of the three surfaces something they did not expect.
The pre-work videos (B3: How to Facilitate Safe Conversations, B3.5: Going Deeper, and B4: Facilitating the Appreciation Dialogue) laid out the mechanics. The triad practice let you feel what the mechanics actually do to a conversation. This question is about that felt experience.
This Week’s Questions
- Of the three roles you practiced in the triad (Sender, Receiver, Guide), which one surprised you most and why?
- What did you notice about yourself when you were in that role?
- And if you had to identify the one thing that felt hardest to do well, what was it?
How to Participate
Post your response by end of day Friday.
Then come back Saturday, Sunday, or Monday and respond to at least 2 to 3 of your cohort members. Read what they shared and engage with it genuinely. You might affirm something that resonated, share where your experience was similar or different, or ask a follow-up question that invites them to go deeper. The goal is real dialogue, not just acknowledgment.
